The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for operating transceiver circuitry to transmit or receive signals on various frequency ranges. To do so, a transmitter or a receiver of the transceiver circuitry is selectively coupled to or uncoupled from an antenna of the transceiver circuitry. Additionally, radio frequency filters may be individually or collectively coupled to and/or uncoupled from the antenna to filter different frequencies in the transmitting or receiving signals.

Systems, methods, and apparatus for an improved body tie construction are described. The improved body tie construction is configured to have a lower resistance body tie exists when the transistor is “off” (Vg approximately 0 volts). When the transistor is “on” (Vg>Vt), the resistance to the body tie is much higher, reducing the loss of performance associated with presence of body tie. Space efficient Body tie constructions adapted for cascode configurations are also described.

Multiple-path RF amplifiers with angularly offset signal path directions, and methods of manufacture thereof
11108362 · 2021-08-31 · ·

A Doherty amplifier module includes a substrate, an RF signal splitter, a carrier amplifier die, and first and second peaking amplifier dies. The RF signal splitter divides an input RF signal into first, second, and third input RF signals, and conveys the input RF signals to splitter output terminals. The carrier amplifier die includes one or more first power transistors configured to amplify, along a carrier signal path, the first input RF signal to produce an amplified first RF signal. The peaking amplifier dies each include one or more additional power transistors configured to amplify, along first and second peaking signal paths, the second and third input RF signals to produce amplified second and third RF signals. The dies are coupled to the substrate so that the RF signal paths through the carrier and one or more of the peaking amplifier dies extend in substantially different (e.g., orthogonal) directions.
