Abstract

A differential amplifier circuit includes a first and second amplifiers that output a differential signal in a radio-frequency band, a first inductor having a first end connected to an output end of the first amplifier, a second inductor having a first end connected to an output end of the second amplifier, a choke inductor connected to second ends of the first and second inductors, a first and second capacitors, and a switch that connects the second capacitor in parallel to the first capacitor or terminates a parallel connection of the first and second capacitors. A resonant circuit formed by connecting the first or second inductor in series with the first capacitor has a different resonant frequency from a resonant circuit formed by connecting the first or second inductor in series with the parallel-connected first and second capacitors. These resonant frequencies correspond to second harmonic frequencies of the differential signal.
