description Techniques for controlling the output of a power amplifier are disclosed. In one embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a system that includes a power amplifier and a controller coupled to the power amplifier to form a feedback loop. The power amplifier is enabled or disabled in response to a blanking signal. The controller includes an accumulator that stores an accumulated error of the feedback loop. The controller suspends operation of the accumulator when (1) a level of the input signal is below a first threshold for an amount of time that exceeds a second threshold, (2) the blanking signal indicates that the power amplifier is disabled, or (3) both. The controller resumes operation of the accumulator when (1) the level of the input signal is above the first threshold and (2) the blanking signal indicates that the power amplifier is enabled.
