US Patent 12081173 Complementary envelope detector

A complementary envelope detector contemplates using two pair of mirrored transistors to provide a differential output envelope signal to an associated envelope tracking integrated circuit (ETIC) that supplies control voltages to an array of power amplifiers. While bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) may be used, other exemplary aspects use field effect transistors (FETs). In an exemplary aspect, a first pair are negative channel FETs (nFETs) and a second pair are positive channel FETs (pFETs).
