This book is an advanced textbook covering the fundamental theory of RF power amplifiers and their uses and providing essential guidance for design procedures. The introduction explains the basic theory of RF power amplifiers besides providing the basic classification of the different types of RF power amplifier. It then systematically dedicates a chapter to each different class of RF power amplifier covering Class A, Class B and Class C, Class D (full-bridge and half-bridge types), Class E (zero-voltage-switching and zero-current-switching), Class F and Class DE amplifiers. These chapters will lead the student to examine parameters, principles of operation, circuit descriptions, current and voltage stresses, switching losses, impendence and matching resonant circuits. Throughout this comprehensive guide, the optimal operating conditions are explored and the possible causes for suboptimum operation explained. The book then considers integrated inductors and linearization techniques and LC Oscillators in the concluding chapters. All chapters contain examples and design procedures throughout, with review questions and problems at the end of each chapter. A solutions manual is also included.Â
