Patent abstract
Radio frequency (RF) amplification devices and methods of amplifying RF signals are disclosed. In one embodiment, an RF amplification device includes a control circuit and a Doherty amplifier configured to amplify an RF signal. The Doherty amplifier includes a main RF amplification circuit and a peaking RF amplification circuit. The control circuit is configured to activate the peaking RF amplification circuit in response to the RF signal reaching a threshold level. In this manner, the activation of the peaking RF amplification circuit can be precisely controlled.
