Abstract
Example embodiments of the invention may provide systems and methods for a power amplifier. The systems and methods may include a first common-source device having a first source, a first gate, a first drain, and a first body, where the first source is connected to the first body, and wherein the first gate is connected to an input port. The systems and methods may further include a second common-gate device having a second source, a second gate, a second drain, and a second body, where the second source is connected to the first drain, where the second source is further connected to the second body, and where the second drain is connected to an output port.
