Abstract
A radio frequency front-end is disclosed having a first power amplifier (PA) having a first PA input and a first PA output, a second PA having a second PA input and a second PA output, and a low-noise amplifier (LNA) having an LNA output connected to a receive output terminal and an LNA input. An input 90° hybrid coupler has a first port input connected to a transmit terminal, a second port input connected to a fixed voltage node through an isolation impedance, a third port output connected to the first amplifier input and a fourth port output connected to the second amplifier input. An output 90° hybrid coupler has a first port output connected to a common terminal, a second port output connected to the LNA input, a third port input connected to the second PA output, and a fourth port input connected to the first PA output.
