Patent number: 7046971Abstract: To down size a distortion-correcting circuit. In the case of a distortion-correcting circuit 1, a basic-wave-amplifying section 10 and a distortion-extracting section 20 have the same circuit configuration. Therefore, the basic-wave-amplifying section 10 and the distortion-extracting section 20 have almost equal input impedance and output impedance and make it possible to distribute and synthesize signal powers without using any power distributor or any power synthesizer. Moreover, because the distortion-correcting circuit 1 is constituted by only a transistor, a resistance, a capacitor, or an inductor, it is easy to downsize the circuit 1 and constitute the circuit 1 into an integrated circuit. Therefore, a characteristic of the basic-wave-amplifying section 10 and that of the distortion-extracting section 20 are further similar to each other and it is possible to more properly distribute or synthesize signal powers without using any power distributor or any power synthesizer.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2003Date of Patent: May 16, 2006Assignee: Seiko Epson CorporationInventor: Masayuki Kawakami
