An 88% fractional bandwidth reconfigurable power amplifier for NB-IoT and LTE-M in 22 nm CMOS FDSOI
A wideband power amplifier (PA), with 88% fractional bandwidth operating in the 700 MHz to 1.8 GHz range, which covers most of the standardized narrowband internet-of-things (NB-IoT) and LTE-M bands, is fully integrated in 22 nm CMOS FDSOI. A single-stage differential amplifier core, combined with an on-chip balun, realizes a single-ended output. A stacked circuit architecture, with 3.3 V LDMOS tr
