Bias arrangements for improving linearity of amplifiers
Abstract:
Bias arrangements for amplifiers are disclosed. An example bias arrangement for an amplifier includes a bias circuit, configured to produce a bias signal for the amplifier; a linearization circuit, configured to improve linearity of the amplifier by modifying the bias signal produced by the bias circuit to produce a modified bias signal to be provided to the amplifier; and a coupling circuit, configured to couple the bias circuit and the linearization circuit. Providing separate bias and linearization circuits coupled to one another by a coupling circuit allows separating a linearization operation from a biasing loop to overcome some drawbacks of prior art bias arrangements that utilize a single biasing loop.
