Doherty PA, where the common supply voltage changes as the target average power
changes. In order to have Doherty efficiency characteristics with APT, the peaking PA must
have an adaptive bias circuit that shifts the bias as the supply voltage changes, activating
the peaking PA at the correct backoff (6dB) from the Posat for that supply voltage. This bias
circuit is demonstrated on a CMOS Doherty PA using standard 0.18 um SOI. With the …
