Abstract
The present invention discloses a portable telephone which is free from overheat of power amplifier module and also capable of a stable transmission even in the condition that it is unable to amplify the power enough. The portable telephone incorporates a power amplifier module which contains power FET's for amplifying transmission signals. A supply voltage monitoring means detects a supply voltage of a power supply. A control-voltage setting table stores a plurality of commands to set a control-voltage of the power amplifier module. A control-voltage selecting means selects a relevant command out of the control-voltage setting table with reference to the detected supply voltage. A control-voltage control means controls the control-voltage of the power amplifier module according to the command selected by the control-voltage selecting means. The control-voltage will be thereby reduced when the supply voltage is high. This results in reduction of a current flow in the power amplifier module, and an overheat of the power amplifier module can be avoided.
