Abstract: In some implementations, there is provided an apparatus comprising a resonant amplifier circuit including a first inductor having a first inductive input and a first inductive output; a second inductor having a second inductive input and a second inductive output; a first switch coupled to the first inductive output; and a second switch coupled to the second inductive output, wherein the first switch and the second switched are driven out of phase, wherein the first inductor is configured to be resonant with a first capacitance associated with the first switch, and wherein the second inductor is configured to be resonant with a second capacitance associated with the second switch. Related systems and articles of manufacture are also provided.
