Abstract

A supply modulator including a first switched-mode power supplier configured to transmit a modulated voltage to an output node in response to an envelope signal, the first switched mode power supplier including: a switching circuit configured to transmit a pulse signal in response to the amplitude of the envelope signal; and a low pass filter configured to generate the modulated voltage by filtering certain frequency band of the pulse signal, the low pass filter comprising a plurality of stages; and a second switched-mode power supplier configured to selectively transmit a compensation current to the output node in response to the current transmitted from the first switched-mode power supplier, wherein each of the plurality of stages of the low pass filter comprises at least one variable impedances.
