Abstract

A transmit in-phase quadrature (IQ) amplifier includes a common gain stage to receive an input signal and to generate an amplified signal. The amplifier includes an IQ poly-phase filter coupled to the common gain stage to receive the amplified signal from the common gain stage and outputs a four-phase signal. The amplifier includes an in-phase (I) phase switching gain stage coupled to the IQ poly-phase filter to receive I components of the four-phase signal and outputs an amplified phase switching I signal. The amplifier includes a quadrature (Q) phase switching gain stage coupled to the IQ poly-phase filter to receive Q components of the four-phase signal and outputs an amplified phase switching Q signal.
