Patent attributes
A power amplifier circuit includes a first transistor having a base or gate connected to a signal path, an emitter or source grounded via a first conductor, and a collector or drain, the first transistor amplifying an input signal supplied to the base or gate thereof along the signal path and outputting the amplified signal from the collector or drain thereof; a first element in a preceding stage of the first transistor, the first element having a first end connected to the signal path such that the first element is connected along a path branched from the signal path, and a second end grounded via a second conductor; and a first capacitor having a first end connected to a node between the emitter or source of the first transistor and the first conductor, and a second end connected to a node between the first element and the second conductor.
