US Patent 10291181 Supply modulator and communication device including the same

A supply modulator includes: a voltage generator including output terminals respectively outputting voltages having different levels, and configured to select, in response to a selection control signal corresponding to an envelope signal, at least one of the voltages as a selection supply voltage and to generate the selection supply voltage by performing DC-DC conversion on a power supply voltage; and a switch unit configured to connect an output terminal through which the selection supply voltage is output to a power amplifier, in response to a connection control signal corresponding to the envelope signal.
