β¦ Synopsis
A linearizer at 2 GHz, using a parallel-configured diode connected directly to the base of a transistor, is shown to gi¨e a reduction of 10 dB in spectral regrowth for the first sidelobe. The method presented is suitable for bipolar junction transistors, and results in a compact circuit, suitable for miniaturization.

## Abstract A 5.5βGHz Doherty amplifier using commercial 0.35βΞΌm SiGe HBT technology is proposed in this article. To improve the linearity, a predistortion using diode linearizer is adopted for biasing the peak amplifier. Moreover, to realize in fully onβchip with circuit reduction, a 90Β° 3βdB hybr
