Abstract:
In this paper,a dual-band Class-D CMOS power amplifier (PA) in a standard 0.18 μm CMOS process is presented for Internet of Things (IoT) applications.The paper describes the specific method of matching network at the dual-band (400 M Hz/600 M Hz) and the circuit operates at 2V supply voltage.Measurement results indicated that the proposed amplifier provides 17.4 dB/16.8 dB gain,14 dBm/15.4 dBm output power and the measured maximum efficiencies of the dual-band PA are 35%/34% at the 400/600 M Hz bands,respectively.
