Abstract:
1. A power amplifier configured to boost an AC signal, the power amplifier comprising: a first transistor configured to receive the AC signal; a first inductor connected between the first transistor and a voltage source, the first inductor configured to receive the AC signal via the first transistor; a first phase conditioner inductively coupled with an input of the first transistor, the first phase conditioner configured to (i) receive the AC signal, and (ii) condition a phase of the AC signal such that the AC signal as received by the first transistor is out of phase with respect to the AC signal as received by the first inductor; a second transistor configured to receive the AC signal; a second inductor connected between the second transistor and ground, the second inductor configured to receive the AC signal via the second transistor; and a second phase conditioner inductively coupled with an input of the second transistor, the second phase conditioner configured to (i) receive the AC signal, and (ii) condition a phase of the AC signal such that the AC signal as received by the second transistor is out of phase with respect to the AC signal as received by the second inductor.
