A transceiver includes a harmonic termination circuit that receives a tunable harmonic voltage from a power amplifier control. The harmonic termination circuit includes a variable capacitor that is capable of adjusting its capacitance in response to the tunable harmonic termination voltage to achieve at least two modes of operation. The at least two modes of operation may be EDGE mode and GSM mode. In this embodiment, the harmonic termination circuit allows for linearity specifications of EDGE to be met, while not degrading the efficiency of the transceiver when operating in GSM mode. In one embodiment, the harmonic termination circuit further includes an inductive element in series with the variable capacitor.
