Abstract

In the present scenario, use of wireless communication devices is increasing drastically for communication. Because of huge wireless communication, there are chances for loss of signal strength. Power amplifier helps in increasing the strength of week RF signal of transmitter of wireless communication. There is a demand for high quality, low cost and low power consumption power amplifier for wireless devices. This project proposes a design of an efficient MOS Class-E power amplifier at low power consumption either by reducing the input DC power level or by scaling the MOS device using 180 nm technology for wireless applications such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi application.
