A power amplifier using multi-path common-mode feedback loops for radio frequency linearization is disclosed. In one aspect, a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) power amplifier containing cascoded n-type field effect transistors (NFETs) and cascoded p-type FETs (PFETs) may have a common-mode feedback network and provides bias voltages that are dynamically varying with the signal power to keep the output common-mode fixed around a half-supply level, while the small-signal and large-signal transconductances of the FET's are kept balanced. A further feedback network may be associated with the supply voltage to assist in providing a symmetrical supply signal. The symmetrical supply signal allows for supply variations without introducing distortion for the power amplifier stage.
