Abstract:In this work, we propose a power amplifier using a stacked NMOS, transformer, and a PMOS structure to enhance the reliability of CMOS power amplifiers. The power stage of the amplifier is separated into NMOS and PMOS amplifier stages to moderate the peak voltages at the drains of each NMOS and PMOS. The power generated in the 2 amplifier stages is combined in the transformer, which has 2 primary parts and 1 secondary part. To verify the functionality of the structure, we designed a 2.4‐GHz differential CMOS po… Show more
