An example apparatus includes a first transistor coupled between a supply node and a first node, a current mirror having a first side and a second side, and a second transistor coupled between the first node and the first side of the current mirror. The input buffer further includes a third transistor coupled between the first node and the second side of the current mirror, and a first capacitor coupled between a source and a drain of the second transistor.

A wireless electric field power transmission system comprises: a transmitter comprising a transmitter antenna, the transmitter antenna comprising at least two conductors defining a volume therebetween; and at least one receiver, wherein the transmitter antenna transfers power wirelessly via electric field coupling when the at least one receiver is within the volume.

An inverted symmetrical four-stage Doherty amplifier is disclosed. The Doherty amplifier includes a carrier amplifier and a plurality of peak amplifiers. Outputs of the carrier amplifier and the peak amplifiers are provided to the combining unit through the offset unit including offset transmission lines each connected with the carrier amplifier and the peak amplifiers. The offset transmission lines have characteristic impedance and electrical lengths equal to each other such that the impedance seeing the amplifiers at the ends of the offset transmission lines become substantially short-circuited.
