Abstract

There are provided a high-frequency amplifier and a high-frequency module having a high efficiency for an extensive input modulated signal power, and base station/mobile wireless machines using the amplifier or the module. The high-frequency amplifier includes a circuit that detects an envelope of an input modulated signal; a control signal generator circuit (a voltage controlled circuit or a current controlled circuit) that can change a voltage or a current according to a given function on the basis of a magnitude of the detected envelope signal; and a diode clamped variable power circuit that connects a plurality of diode clamped circuits each including a diode, a transistor, and a DC power supply to one another.
