The invention relates to a matching circuit for adapting an amplifier to load impedance at various output power levels of the amplifier, and a method for adapting the amplifier to load impedance at various output power levels of the amplifier. The matching circuit comprises an LC circuit, i.e. an electric circuit switching consisting of at least one coil and at least one capacitor for tuning harmonic signals resulting from amplifier non-linearities. At least one capacitor of the LC circuit (600, 602, 604, 606) is an adjustable microelectromechanical (MEMS) capacitor (602, 606). The LC circuit comprises an interface for receiving control signals (220) adjusting capacitance of the microelectromechanical (MEMS) capacitor. The control signals (220) adjust the capacitance of the microelectromechanical (MEMS) capacitor (602, 606) such that the LC circuit (600, 602, 604, 606) resonates at the frequency of the harmonic signal to be tuned.
