A linearized power amplifier apparatus includes a number of amplifying stages to amplify a radio-frequency (RF) signal, and a feedback loop including a feedback circuit coupled between an output port of a last amplifying stage and an input port of a first amplifying stage. The feedback loop has a loop gain frequency response that peaks at a frequency approximately equal to a frequency of the RF signal. The feedback loop can provide a linear combination of a feedback signal and the RF signal to the input port of the first amplifying stage.
