    Abstract: Power amplifier (PA) packages, such as Doherty PA packages, containing multi-path integrated passive devices (IPDs) are disclosed. In embodiments, the PA package includes a package body through which first and second signal amplification paths extend, a first amplifier die within the package body and positioned in the first signal amplification path, and a second amplifier die within the package body and positioned in the second signal amplification path. A multi-path IPD is further contained in the package body. The multi-path IPD includes a first IPD region through which the first signal amplification path extends, a second IPD region through which the second signal amplification path extends, and an isolation region formed in the IPD substrate a location intermediate the first IPD region and the second IPD region.

    Abstract: Leadless power amplifier (PA) packages and methods for fabricating leadless PA packages having topside terminations are disclosed. In embodiments, the method includes providing electrically-conductive pillar supports and a base flange. At least a first radio frequency (RF) power die is attached to a die mount surface of the base flange and electrically interconnected with the pillar supports. Pillar contacts are further provided, with the pillar contacts electrically coupled to the pillar supports and projecting therefrom in a package height direction. The first RF power die is enclosed in a package body, which at least partially defines a package topside surface opposite a lower surface of the base flange. Topside input/out terminals are formed, which are accessible from the package topside surface and which are electrically interconnected with the first RF power die through the pillar contacts and the pillar supports.

    Abstract: Embodiments of an amplifiers and integrated circuits include a first transistor and a second transistor. A second current-carrying terminal of the first transistor may be coupled to a first current-carrying terminal of the second transistor and the control terminal of the second transistor may be coupled to a low impedance alternating current (AC) potential node. A bias network that includes a first circuit element and a second circuit element couples the second current-carrying terminal of the second transistor to the control terminal of the second transistor. The first circuit element may be configured to apply a portion of a potential at the second current-carrying terminal of the second transistor to the control terminal of the second transistor, and the second circuit element may be coupled between the control terminal of the second transistor and a fixed potential.
