ABSTRACT:
Briefly, an apparatus having a first capacitor-inductor-capacitor impedance converter operably coupled to a second capacitor-inductor-capacitor impedance converter. The first and second capacitor-inductor-capacitor impedance converter may combine a first and second signals of first and second outphasing power amplifiers and may provide a matched output impedance to a desired load.
