Analysis and Design of Class E Power Amplifier with Nonlinear Parasitic Capacitance at Any Duty Ratio
نویسندگان
چکیده
The nominal operating condition of Class E power amplifiers with parallel-connected nonlinear parasitic capacitance and linear capacitance at any duty ratio has been studied in this article. Basic design equations are derived analytically. Using these equations, the component values for ensuring nominal operation at any given duty ratio can be conveniently found. Furthermore, the design equations highlight several important practical constraints, which help develop effective designs for improving the performance of practical Class E amplifiers. Finally, a design example is provided for verification. Both PSPICE simulation and experimental measurements are presented. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A Class E Power Amplifier with Low Voltage Stress
A new output structure for class E power amplifier (PA) is proposed in this paper. A series LC resonator circuit, tuned near the second harmonic of the operating frequency is added to the output circuit. This resonator causes low impedance at the second harmonic. The output circuit is designed to shape the switch voltage of the class E amplifier and lower the voltage stress of the transistor. T...
