Description

A kind of power amplifier
Technical field
The present invention relates to the electronic circuit technology field, particularly a kind of power amplifier.
Background technology
Since nineteen nineties, mobile communication technology has been obtained development fast, and the communication technology has entered 3G by 2G and strided forward fast to 4G again.Simultaneously, along with the raising of environmental protection consciousness and the pressure of common carrier operation cost, adopt original back-off technology to guarantee high linear power amplifier, at cost and can not standing of becoming aspect safeguarding.So Xian Xing power amplifier technology becomes the power amplifier design technology of main flow efficiently.
Part power amplifier particularly Doherty power amplifier is that main amplifier and booster amplifier are formed by two power discharging devices, and its block diagram as shown in Figure 1.The power amplifier of this form can be raised the efficiency on the basis that guarantees certain linearity, more and more receive an acclaim, but it has an apparent in view shortcoming, during the design circuit plate, main amplifier and booster amplifier are on same plane, and all need the power supply power supply, so must adopt the mode at circuit board outside weldings power supply wire jumper that two power ends are coupled together on the two-sided circuit board of individual layer, the example as shown in Figure 1.Because power amplifier output power is bigger, can reach tens even hundreds of watts, simultaneously because its efficient is lower, so its heating is just more considerable.For the guaranteed output amplifier can operate as normal be unlikely to the power amplifier circuit plate to be installed in above the heat dissipation base of an aluminium sheet or copper coin formation because cross cause thermal damage.Therefore adopt supply power mode shown in Figure 1 that several shortcomings are just arranged: at first to be for guaranteeing that normal power supply and base contact with the good of miscellaneous part, must on heat dissipation base, excavate the groove that can hold the power supply wire jumper, if base thinner thickness even can be with whole base hollow out, this sample loading mode has increased complexity and the cost of base production process, has reduced the mechanical strength of base; Secondly, need artificial source of welding current wire jumper in the later stage of board production, but the quality of artificial welding is difficult to obtain assurance, therefore exists the risk of the power amplifier functional reliability of reduction; At last, this supply power mode has been delayed production process, and the waste of manpower resource has increased production cost.
Summary of the invention
The embodiment of the invention has proposed a kind of power amplifier, the supply power mode of main amplifier and auxilliary amplifier in the existing power amplifier is improved, thereby simplified the production process of power amplifier, enhances productivity, and reduces production costs.
Embodiment of the invention power amplifier, comprise main amplifier, auxilliary amplifier and power supply, the output of described main amplifier links to each other with the output of described auxilliary amplifier, forms public output, and described power supply is connected to the public output of described main amplifier and described auxilliary amplifier by microstrip line.
Preferably, described microstrip line is quarter-wave microstrip line or four/three-wavelength microstrip line.
Preferably, also comprise electric capacity, described electric capacity parallel connection, and be connected between described power supply and the described public output by described microstrip line.
Preferably, described power supply is+the 28V power supply.
Preferably, described power amplifier is the Doherty power amplifier.
Embodiment of the invention power amplifier, DC power supply is inserted by the public output of microstrip line from major-minor amplifier, in order further to avoid direct current signal to the influence of radiofrequency signal, the electric capacity that DC power supply earlier connects one group of parallel connection by microstrip line is received the public output of major-minor amplifier again, and the number of shunt capacitance designs as required.。So, DC power-supply circuit and radio-frequency power transmission circuit are merged, the microstrip line that major-minor amplifier out links to each other had both played the effect of transmission radio-frequency power, can carry out direct current supply to major-minor amplifier again, and this is that the design of conventional power amplifier circuit never relates to.Make also that simultaneously the stereo circuit that adopts power supply wire jumper mode to power changes planar circuit into, be specially adapted to the Doherty power amplifier, to provide convenience for the circuit design of Doherty power amplifier, be particularly useful for situation about designing at the two-sided pcb board of individual layer.
