Patent number: 9252716Abstract: A high-frequency amplifier circuit includes a balanced-unbalanced converter converting a single-ended signal into differential signals. The output of a first amplifier amplifying the single-ended signal is connected to the signal terminal on the unbalanced side of the balanced-unbalanced converter. The input of a second amplifier amplifying one of the differential signals is connected to one signal terminal on the balanced side of the balanced-unbalanced converter. The input of a third amplifier amplifying another of the differential signals is connected to another signal terminal on the balanced side of the balanced-unbalanced converter. An impedance element is inserted between an element on the balanced side of the balanced-unbalanced converter and a ground.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2014Date of Patent: February 2, 2016Assignee: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Sadaharu Yoneda, Atsushi Ajioka, Tomohiko Shibuya, Atsushi Tsumita

Publication number: 20140070891Abstract: To prevent a wrap-around signal from an output detection circuit unit that occurs when commonality is achieved between the power supply of the output detection circuit unit and the bias power supply of a power amplification unit. When commonality is achieved between the power supply of a diode of an output detection circuit unit and the power supply of a bias circuit, a resonance circuit is connected between the bias circuit and the output detection circuit unit, thereby preventing a wrap-around signal from the output side of a power amplification transistor from being input to the input side of the power amplification transistor.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2012Publication date: March 13, 2014Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Tomohiko Shibuya, Atsushi Ajioka, Atsushi Tsumita
