US Patent 10263594 Impedance matching circuit for radio-frequency amplifier

Impedance matching circuit for radio-frequency amplifier. In some embodiments, an impedance matching circuit can include a primary metal trace having a first end configured to be capable of being coupled to a voltage source for the power amplifier, and a second end configured to be capable of being coupled to an output of the power amplifier. The impedance matching circuit can further include a secondary metal trace having first end coupled to the second end of the primary metal trace, and a second end configured to be capable of being coupled to an output node. The impedance matching circuit can further include a capacitance implemented between the first and second ends of the secondary metal trace, and be configured to trap a harmonic associated with an amplified signal at the output of the power amplifier.
