Abstract

A power amplifier comprises a control signal generator providing a first and a second signal, a first amplifier comprising a first transistor and a first cascode transistor for the amplification of the first signal, a second amplifier comprising a second transistor and a second cascode transistor for the amplification of the second signal, and an output coupler which couples an output of the first amplifier and an output of the second amplifier to an output terminal of the amplifier arrangement.
