Abstract: A method may be provided for powering up or down a playback path comprising a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) for generating a non-ground-centered analog intermediate voltage centered at a common-mode voltage and coupled to a driver for generating a ground-centered playback path output voltage at an output of the driver wherein the output of the driver is clamped via a finite impedance to a ground voltage. The method may include transitioning continuously or in a plurality of discrete steps the analog intermediate voltage from an initial voltage to the common-mode voltage such that the transitioning is substantially inaudible at the output of the driver. A method for operating an output clamp of an output driver stage of a playback path may include transitioning continuously or in a plurality of discrete steps an impedance of the output clamp in order to match an output offset of the output driver stage in order to minimize audio artifacts appearing at an output of the output driver stage.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for controlling gain of a single stage cascode FET amplifier are presented. According to one aspect, a series-connected resistor and capacitor is coupled to a gate of a cascode FET transistor of the amplifier, the capacitor providing a short at frequencies of operation of the amplifier. According to another aspect, values of the resistor can be used to control gain of the amplifier. According to yet another aspect, the resistor is a variable resistor whose value can be controlled/adjusted to provide different gains of the amplifier according to a linear function of the resistor value. An input matching network coupled to an input of the amplifier can be used to compensate for different noise figure degradations from different values of the resistor.

Abstract: A power amplification module includes: an amplifier that amplifies an input signal and outputs an amplified signal; and a harmonic-termination circuit to which harmonics of the amplified signal are input and the impedance of which is controlled in accordance with the frequency of a harmonic. The power amplification module can operate in a first mode in which a power supply voltage changes in accordance with the average voltage value of the amplified signal over a prescribed time period or in a second mode in which the power supply voltage changes in accordance with the envelope of the input signal. The impedance of the harmonic-termination circuit is controlled such that at least one even-ordered harmonic is short-circuited when the power amplification module operates in the first mode and at least one odd-ordered harmonic of third order or higher is short-circuited when the power amplification module operates in the second mode.
