This paper presents a high-efficiency neutralized continuous class-F (CCF) CMOS power amplifier (PA) design technique for millimeter-wave (mmW) 5G mobile communications. A parasitic-aware tuned-load with a high-order harmonicresonance network is proposed to shape the current and voltage waveforms for the CCF PA. At mmW frequencies, the gate- drain capacitance (Cgd) creates adverse capacitive loadi...
