  • Patent number: 9857862
    Abstract: A power supply for a radio frequency (RF) power amplifier that amplifies an RF input signal into an RF output signal and a method of operation in the power supply. The power supply comprises a first power converter to convert an input voltage to the power supply into a first supply voltage of the RF power amplifier. The power supply comprises a second power converter to receive the input voltage and the first supply voltage and to selectively convert either the input voltage or the first supply voltage into at least a portion of a second supply voltage of the RF power amplifier.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 6, 2016
    Date of Patent: January 2, 2018
    Assignee: QUANTANCE, INC.
