description This paper shows a methodology for designing class F amplifiers based on closed equations that allow the direct calculation of the output matching network. For the sake of proving, a prototype has been carried out using the Cree´s device GaN HEMT CGH40010, obtaining a maximum drain efficiency of 65 %, small signal gain of 14.2 dB and saturated output power of 41 dBm, using sinusoidal excitation. The drain voltage and current waveforms are coherent with theory and the results in continuous-wave are outstanding.

This paper shows a methodology for designing class F amplifiers based on closed equations that allow the direct calculation of the output matching network. For the sake of proving, a prototype has been carried out using the Cree´s device GaN HEMT CGH40010, obtaining a maximum drain efficiency of 65 %, small signal gain of 14.2 dB and saturated output power of 41 dBm, using sinusoidal excitation. The drain voltage and current waveforms are coherent with theory and the results in continuous-wave are outstanding. Este artículo muestra una metodología para el diseño de amplificadores clase F, basada en ecuaciones cerradas que permiten el cálculo directo de la red de acople de salida. Como demostración, un prototipo ha sido realizado usando el dispositivo GaN HEMT CGH40010 de Cree, obteniendo una eficiencia de drenaje máxima de 65%, ganancia a pequeña señal de 14.2 dB y potencia de salida en saturación de 41 dBm, usando excitación tipo sinusoidal. Las formas de onda obtenidas para el voltaje y la corriente de drenaje son coherentes con la teoría y los resultados en onda-continua son sobresalientes.
