Abstract

This paper presents a design procedure for the class F3 RF power amplifier. The required range of the drain current conduction angle for the class F3 power amplifier is specified. Additionally, an equation for the resistance of the third harmonic resonant circuit is given. Class F 3, AB, and C power amplifiers were designed and simulated to compare their respective performance in terms of efficiency.
