Abstract:
An amplifier device includes an input terminal, an output terminal, a first transistor having a control terminal and first and second current-carrying terminals, and a class-J circuit coupled between the second current-carrying terminal of the first transistor and the output terminal and configured to harmonically terminate the first transistor. The class-J circuit may include a first resonator, characterized by a first resonant frequency substantially equal to a second harmonic frequency. The first resonator may be coupled between the second current-carrying terminal and a voltage reference. A shunt inductor that is distinct from the first resonator may be coupled between the second current-carrying terminal and the voltage reference.

Claim (Index 10):
A packaged amplifier device comprising:\n a base substrate; a first input terminal; a first output terminal; a first transistor formed on a semiconductor substrate that is coupled to the base substrate, wherein the first transistor includes a control terminal and first and second current-carrying terminals, wherein the first transistor is characterized by a first output capacitance, and wherein the control terminal is coupled to the first input terminal and the first current-carrying terminal is coupled to a voltage reference; a first class-J circuit formed on a first substrate that is coupled to the base substrate, wherein the first class-J circuit includes a series inductor that couples the second current-carrying terminal to a first resonator at a first node, wherein the first resonator is characterized by a first resonant frequency that is substantially equal to a second harmonic frequency, wherein the first resonator is integrally formed with the first substrate, and wherein the first resonator is coupled between the first node and the voltage reference, and wherein the class-J circuit is configured to harmonically terminate the first transistor; and a shunt inductor coupled between the first node of the first class-J circuit and the voltage reference, wherein the shunt inductor is configured to increase an impedance of the first node at a fundamental frequency.
