Abstract
A harmonic trap filter suppresses at least one harmonic signal produced by an amplifier and includes an input terminal and a ground terminal. The harmonic trap filter further includes a plurality of resonators electrically coupled one to another between the input terminal and the ground terminal in a spatial order defined by relative phase shift of alternating voltage bias signals respectively applied thereto. The resonators are tuned to resonate at a frequency at which a phase delay is imparted to the at least one harmonic signal by the resonators to effect cancelation of the at least one harmonic signal at the input terminal.
