  • an integrated F-class amplifier arrangement is provided with a semiconductor power device and an output compensation circuit for compensating a parasitic output capacitance of the power device at fundamental frequency and at least one odd or even multiple thereof.
  • this measure serves to suppress the power of higher harmonics of the fundamental frequency at the output of the F-class amplifier arrangement.
  • the power of undesired harmonics can be suppressed in two different ways: by providing very high or very low impedance to the output of the power transistor at frequency of specific harmonic. In this way the one component of output power of the harmonics is being eliminated, i.e. the voltage or the current, depending on the impedance presented to the device output- drain or collector.
  • the suggested F-class output circuit is providing a high impedance for all odd harmonics and a very low impedance for all even harmonics or the way around. It is possible due to compensation of parasitic Cout of power device at several required harmonic (even or odd), where high impedance is required. Due to the properties of this circuit, it also at the same time provides a very low impedance or short circuit for all other harmonics.

  • the F-class operation is provided by peaking the odd or even harmonics of the voltage signal and the even or odd harmonics of the current signal by a compact and effective circuit when applied to the input and/or output of the power device.
  • the shape of the output current signal of the device corresponds to a half sine- wave and the shape of the output voltage signal corresponds to a sine- wave with a flattened top as well as bottom sides.
  • the shape of the output voltage wave signal approaches to a rectangular shape.
  • a compensation circuitry at the input side of the power device should be able to provide a reduced rise and fall time of the output current.

  • the output current pulse may result in a minimal rise and fall time. Accordingly, the conditions for F-class amplification are provided.

With similar compensation circuit for output parasitic capacitance, the transistor output will see the load with high impedance at odd or even, if required harmonics of fundamental, which will peak the output voltage or current at odd or even harmonics, delivering a higher efficiency.
