Abstract

This chapter analyzes the different PA operation modes. The different PA classes are traditionally classified into two main groups: current source amplifiers, which comprises classes A to C, and switch-type amplifiers, which make up classes E and D. The class F PA is treated separately as it falls between current source and switch-type amplifiers. The following sections describe each operation mode in detail.
