Abstract

Apparatus and the methods for stacked power amplifiers are provided. In certain embodiments, a mobile device includes a transceiver that generates a first radio frequency input signal and a second radio frequency input signal, and a front end system including a stacked power amplifier that receives power from a power high supply voltage and a power low supply voltage. The stacked power amplifier includes a first power amplifier that amplifies the first radio frequency input signal and a second power amplifier that amplifies the second radio frequency input signal. The first power amplifier and the second power amplifier are electrically connected in a stack between the power high supply voltage and the power low supply voltage and operate with a shared DC bias current.
