TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application is suitable for the field of communication technology, and particularly relates to a power amplifier and a radio frequency chip. BACKGROUND
[0002] Radio frequency power amplifiers play a crucial role in modern wireless communication systems. The core function is to amplify the weak modulated radio frequency signals to provide sufficient energy for the signals to be effectively radiated through the antenna, thereby overcoming path loss, ensuring communication distance and coverage. At the same time, it must strike a difficult balance between efficiency and linearity, and its performance directly determines the coverage capability, energy cost and communication quality of the entire communication system. Whether it is a mobile terminal (such as a mobile phone), a base station device, a satellite communication system, or a broadcast television transmission system, it widely relies on power amplifiers to expand signal coverage and enhance link quality, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the communication process.
[0003] With the development of wireless communication technology, the requirements for power amplifiers are constantly increasing to support the growing demand for high data rate transmission. Modern communication standards such as 5G and future 6G have higher requirements for power amplifiers, not only supporting wider bandwidth and higher linearity, but also optimizing the balance between efficiency, heat and size to enable the system to efficiently transmit data in a wider frequency band. The performance of a power amplifier is usually measured by several key indicators, including efficiency, gain, linearity, stability, and bandwidth characteristics. Among them, efficiency directly affects the power consumption and thermal management of the system; linearity determines signal fidelity and out-of-band interference level; stability ensures the reliable operation of the amplifier under different load conditions; and bandwidth characteristics affect the range of supported frequency bands and data transmission potential. In order to enable the communication system to achieve wideband and high efficiency transmission, it is necessary to design a reasonable circuit architecture and matching method, in which the impedance matching network and the inter-stage matching network play a very important role.
[0004] The impedance matching network is mainly applied to the input or output port of the circuit system, and its core function is to achieve efficient energy transmission between the signal source and the load. By matching the load impedance and the signal source impedance, it can maximize power transmission and significantly reduce signal reflection caused by impedance mismatch, thereby ensuring signal integrity, improving system efficiency and ensuring device stability. The inter-stage matching network is used between the cascaded stages of a multi-stage circuit (such as a multi-stage amplifier), focusing on achieving maximum power gain and optimizing overall performance. It matches the output impedance of the previous stage circuit to the optimal input impedance of the next stage circuit, ensuring that each stage can be fully driven and work in the best state; the architecture of the inter-stage matching directly affects the realization of the bandwidth, linearity, efficiency, and gain indicators of the PA.
[0005] In order to design a power amplifier with wide bandwidth and high efficiency, the output power, gain, return loss and the like can be used as indexes for the power amplifier. Among them, the relative bandwidth is defined as:
[0006]
[0007] In the formula, Δω is the frequency band width satisfying the index requirement, and ω0 is the center frequency. Generally, the relative bandwidth is used to measure the bandwidth characteristics of the system. The relative bandwidth less than 20% is defined as narrowband, and the relative bandwidth greater than 20% is defined as wideband. In the matching architecture, the bandwidth of the matching network can be expanded by increasing the number of elements cascaded in the matching network, but the bandwidth is often limited by the input and output impedances, and it is impossible to increase indefinitely. According to the Bode-Fano criterion:
[0008]
[0009] In the formula, Γ (ω ) is the reflection coefficient of all lossless matching networks. If the reflection coefficient Γ (ω ) is constant in the frequency band, m Γ, the reflection coefficient |Γ (ω )|=1 outside the frequency band is in the full reflection state, and the wider the bandwidth of the matching network, the worse the modulus of the reflection coefficient. If you want to obtain a very wide bandwidth, you must sacrifice the perfection of the matching and accept a certain amount of reflection within the passband. Therefore, the Bode-Fano bandwidth theory points out that when the complex load is given, there is a basic limit to the achievable bandwidth, which will reduce the target load impedance and further deviate from the high efficiency condition, and after a certain bandwidth is reached, the efficiency will be poor.
[0010] The inter-stage matching network of the power amplifier commonly used in the prior art is shown in Figure 1 Figure 1 is a circuit diagram of a power amplifier provided by the related art, mainly composed of inductors (L1, L2, L3) and capacitors (C1, C2, C3), wherein the series inductor is connected to the output Pad of the driver stage die and the inductor L2, L2 is the drain stage feed inductor of the driver stage die, which provides the drain voltage for the driver stage die. L3 is the gate feed inductor of the final stage die, which provides the gate voltage for the final stage die. C1 is a DC blocking capacitor that separates the drain voltage of the driver amplifier tube and the gate voltage of the final stage amplifier tube. C2 and C3 are decoupling capacitors of the power supply end, which are used to eliminate power supply noise and voltage fluctuation. Another common inter-stage matching network of the power amplifier is shown in Figure 2 Figure 2 is a circuit diagram of another power amplifier provided by the related art; mainly composed of inductors (L1, L2, L3) and capacitors (C1, C2, C3, C4), C1 is a DC blocking capacitor, C2 is connected in parallel to the ground, L1 is a series inductor, C2 and L1 participate in inter-stage matching, and impedance is optimized; L2 is a drain stage feed inductor of a driving stage die, and provides a drain voltage for the driving stage die. L3 is a gate feed inductor of a final stage die, and provides a gate voltage for the final stage die. C1 is a DC blocking capacitor, which separates the drain voltage of the driving amplifier tube and the gate voltage of the final amplifier tube. C2 and C3 are decoupling capacitors of the power supply end.
[0011] However, although the bandwidth of the inter-stage matching network architecture of the above two power amplifiers can be wide, the network matching loss is large, and the overall efficiency is low; for products covering a low frequency of 100Mhz and a bandwidth exceeding one octave, the above power amplifier architecture cannot be completely suitable.
[0012] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new power amplifier and radio frequency chip to solve the above technical problems. SUMMARY
