ABSTRACT:
A delta-modulated magnitude amplifier is used to amplify the magnitude component of an RF power amplifier that employs envelope elimination and restoration. The delta-modulated amplifier introduces a smaller amount of non-linearity than traditional approaches, which are based upon pulse-width modulation. The disclosed technique can be implemented using switched-capacitor circuits in a standard MOS technology with only two external components, i.e., an inductor and a capacitor. Thus, the disclosed technique allows the implementation of an efficient and yet linear RF power amplifier using low-cost MOS technology.
