Examples in Context

  1. In order to meet the linearity requirements, it often uses a certain degree of power back-off approach to achieve the increase of the linearity, however, with the power back-off, amplifier efficiency, such as the power-added efficiency will be greatly reduced.
  2. Results show that R_ ( Emin ) of the HBT is smaller than that of the BJT. Therefore, RF power HBT will provide higher output power, power gain, and power-added efficiency ( PAE ) in an amplifier block.
  3. However, the parasitic output capacitance of LDMOS will directly affect its output characteristics, including power gain, power-added efficiency, and so on, especially, can make the design of output matching harder.
