Zusammenfassung: | An amplifier system including a push-pull power amplifier having an input to receive a radio frequency (RF) input signal and an output, the push-pull power amplifier being configured to amplify the RF input signal and provide at the output an RF output signal that is an amplified version of the RF input signal, a switchable shunt capacitance switchably connected between a load-line connected to the output of the push-pull power amplifier and a reference potential, and a switch configured to selectively connect the switchable shunt capacitance to the reference potential and disconnect the switchable shunt capacitance from the reference potential to vary an impedance of load-line. |
