发明名称 Saturation corrected power amplifier integration loop
摘要 Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an radio frequency (RF) power amplifier (PA) module having a saturation corrected integration loop, which includes saturation detection and correction circuitry, an integrator, PA circuitry, and detector circuitry. An integrator output signal from the integrator is prevented from being driven toward a power supply rail in the presence of saturation of the PA circuitry by saturation correction of an input ramp signal. The saturation detection and correction circuitry receives and saturation corrects the input ramp signal to provide a saturation corrected input ramp signal to the integrator based on detecting saturation of the PA circuitry. Saturation of the PA circuitry is detected based on a difference between a desired PA output voltage, as indicated by the input ramp signal, and a detected PA output voltage, as indicated by a detector output signal from the detector circuitry.
