Embodiment Construction

[0028] As mentioned in the background technology section, the multi-mode multi-frequency radio frequency front-end chip in the prior art has a complex structure and high cost, resulting in a complex structure and high cost of the radio frequency power amplifier.

[0029] In the prior art, the radio frequency power amplifier is an essential key component in various wireless communication applications, and is used to amplify the power of the modulated radio frequency signal output by the transceiver, so as to meet the power requirement of the radio frequency signal required by wireless communication.

[0030] At present, 3G and 4G mobile communications have been deployed and applied more and more around the world, but as the most widely deployed and most mature mobile communication standard, 2G GSM is still the communication mode that all mobile terminals need to support. Uplink communication in 2G GSM communication mode includes 4 frequency bands, namely: GSM850: 824MHz-849MHz; ...

Abstract

The invention provides a radio frequency power amplifier. The radio frequency power amplifier comprises a radio frequency amplification path; the radio frequency amplification path comprises a multi-stage amplification circuit; and the multi-stage amplification circuit comprises an input radio frequency gating switch, a driving-stage amplifier, a stage matching network, an outputting-stage amplifier, an output matching network and an output gating network. The outputting-stage amplifier comprises first power amplifiers and second power amplifiers; the output matching network comprises first impedance converters and first transformers; one first power amplifier, one second power amplifiers and one first impedance converter compose a differential amplifier unit; and multiple differential amplifier units are provided, and the multiple differential amplifier units are connected in parallel. Through controlling the opening number of the differential amplifier units, switching of different power levels is realized, full coverage for high, intermediate and low frequency bands of 2G / 2G / 4G is accordingly achieved, and the cost of the radio frequency power amplifier is reduced.

Description
