Abstract

The invention relates to an LDMOS power amplifier technology, overcomes the defects of low precision and complexity of an existing simulation method for extracting power additional efficiency indexesof different LDMOS device structures, and provides a simulation method for power added efficiency of an LDMOS power amplifier. The simulation method is characterized by comprising the steps of: replacing an existing fixed bias voltage with a fixed bias current; for different device structures, under the condition of the fixed bias current, keeping port impedance basically unchanged; and completingconstruction of LDMOS power amplifiers of different device structures by adopting a unified matching circuit. The simulation method has the beneficial effects that the simulation precision of the efficiency indexes is improved, the design frequency of the matching circuit is effectively reduced, and the simulation method is suitable for simulating the power added efficiency of the LDMOS power amplifier.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to LDMOS power amplifier technology, in particular to a simulation method for the power-added efficiency of the LDMOS power amplifier. Background technique [0002] At present, the application of radio frequency circuits is becoming more and more extensive with the development of communication technology. However, with the increase of integration of internal components of radio frequency communication equipment, the power consumption will inevitably increase. The power consumption of the whole device is mainly concentrated in the internal power amplifier unit. If the working efficiency of the power amplifier can be improved and the power consumption of the whole machine can be reduced, the battery life and the life of electronic components can be effectively enhanced. Relying on the advantages of low manufacturing cost of LDMOS power devices and easy integration with CMOS technology, LDMOS power transistors have attracted much att...
