Abstract: Reconfigurable output baluns for wideband push-pull amplifiers are disclosed. In certain embodiments, a mobile device includes a transceiver that generates a first radio frequency signal of a first frequency band and a second radio frequency signal of a second frequency band, and a front-end system including a push-pull power amplifier that selectively amplifies one of the first radio frequency signal or the second radio frequency signal based on a band control signal. The push-pull power amplifier includes an input balun, an output balun, and a pair of amplifiers coupled between the input balun and the output balun. The band control signal is operable to control an impedance of the output balun.

Abstract: A wideband power amplifier includes a set of amplifiers connected in parallel to amplify signals from input ports of the amplifiers, a matching network configured to match the signals amplified by the amplifiers with predetermined load values, the matching network having a first impedance frequency response as a monotonically decreasing function of frequency of the amplified signals in a target operation frequency range, a converter network configured to convert the signals matched by the matching network, and an impedance flattening network having a second impedance frequency response as a monotonically increasing function of frequency of the amplified signals in the target operation frequency range.
