CIRCUITS AND DEVICES RELATED TO MULTI-HARMONIC CONTROL OF AMPLIFIED SIGNALS

摘要

Circuits and devices related to multi-harmonic control of amplified signals. In some embodiments, an amplifier circuit assembly can include an amplifier configured to provide a signal at an output. The amplifier circuit assembly can further include a matching network configured to provide impedance matching for the signal having a fundamental frequency, a broadband harmonic trap configured to substantially trap a plurality of harmonics associated with the fundamental frequency, and a dipole network configured to tune reactances associated with the broadband harmonic trap. The matching network, the broadband harmonic trap and the dipole network can be implemented in series from the output of the amplifier.
