Abstract

This paper provides an integrated, high efficiency, high voltage, class-F Power Amplifier (PA) for increasing the efficiency of Ultrasonic Transducer. It also provides harmonic termination technique for high efficiency class F PA’s. The effect of different output harmonic terminations on the Power- Added Efficiency (PAE) of the PA has also been analyzed. Theoretically, high efficiency can be attained in class- F operation by maximally flattening the current and voltage waveforms at the drain of active device.
