Problems solved by technology

However, the use of the bypass capacitors 36a-36c in the power amplifier 30 is not only inefficient, but the use of the bypass capacitors 36a-36c will also increase the complexity of the circuit layout of the power amplifier 30
[0006] Generally speaking, existing power amplifiers increase the stability of the circuit at the cost of sacrificing gain, however, such an approach is very inefficient
Not only that, but the circuit layout of existing power amplifiers is also very inefficient

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a power amplifier integrated circuit used in wired or wireless communication devices, in particular to a power amplifier integrated circuit containing distributed capacitors. Background technique [0002] In recent years, power amplifier integrated circuits have been widely used in various wired or wireless communication devices, and some power amplifier integrated circuits containing heterojunction bipolar transistors can operate at high junction temperatures. temperatures) environment. However, a high junction temperature will reduce the reliability of the power amplifier integrated circuit, thereby limiting the maximum current that the power amplifier integrated circuit can withstand during operation, and of course also limiting the maximum power that the power amplifier integrated circuit can withstand during operation. [0003] When the current in the power amplifier integrated circuit is quite large, the power am...
