Abstract
This chapter discusses the design of a 2-way Doherty PA at 28 GHz with high efficiency at peak and back-off. It demonstrates the capability of the 22nm FDSOI 5G circuit and systems that utilize the strengths of the 22 nm FDSOI technology to provide maximum performance. Section 3.1 elaborates on the design steps of the Doherty power amplifier. Simulation and measurement results along with comparison with the existing state-of-the-art DPAs are discussed in Sect. 3.2. Finally, Sect. 3.3 summarizes the chapter.
