Abstract
An amplifier having a pair of transistors arranged in a cascode amplifier arrangement serially connected to a first voltage source. A DC bias regulator is provided having: a DC bias circuit for producing a reference voltage at a control electrode of a first one of the pair of transistors: and a voltage combiner having a pair of inputs, a first of the pair of inputs being coupled to the reference voltage and a second one of the pair of inputs being coupled to the first voltage source. The DC bias regulator produces a DC bias voltage at a control electrode of a second one of the pair of transistors related to a combination of the reference voltage and the first voltage source.
