Abstract
A power amplifier circuit includes a first path and a second path between an input terminal and an output terminal, a first amplifier located in the first path operative in a first mode, a second amplifier located in the second path operative in a second mode, a first matching circuit between the first amplifier and the output terminal in the first path, a first capacitor having a first end connected to the output terminal side of the first matching circuit, and a second end, a first inductor having a first end connected to the second end of the first capacitor and a second end grounded, and a short-circuit switch connected in parallel with the first inductor. The short-circuit switch short-circuits the first and second ends of the first inductor in the first mode and is placed in an open-circuit position in the second mode.
