<p>A RF power amplifier circuit has at least one power transistor and a protection circuit protecting the power transistor against high voltages that lead to a destructive breakdown of the transistor. The circuit comprises a power transistor (2), a biasing circuit (6) biasing the power transistor; a peak detector (8) measuring the output voltage of the power transistor; and a comparator circuit (12) connected to the peak detector (8) and designed to reduce the base current of the power transistor (2) when controlled by the peak detector (8).</p> |
