Patent attributes
It is an object of the present invention to provide a high-frequency power amplifier capable of improving the linearity at the time of high output by preventing decrease in power of bias supply transistor. The high-frequency power amplifier is a high-frequency power amplifier including high-frequency power amplifier transistors and connected in multiple stages and bias supply transistors and each of which supplies bias current to a base of a corresponding one of said high-frequency power amplifier transistors, and each of which is connected to a common power supply terminal which is further connected to a collector of the high-frequency power amplifier transistor at a first stage among said high-frequency power amplifier transistors, and a passive element connected between the common supply terminal and a collector of the corresponding one of said bias supply transistors connected to the high-frequency power amplifier transistor at the first stage.
