Abstract

A power amplifier circuit includes an amplification unit, a heating unit, and a control circuit. The amplification unit is configured to amplify a radio-frequency signal. The heating unit is provided adjacent to the amplification unit. The heating unit includes one or more transistors configured to generate heat that increases as the passing current increases. The control circuit is coupled to the one or more transistors. The control circuit is configured to increase the passing current when the environmental temperature is a predetermined threshold or lower.
