In this contribution, the design of an uneven AB-C Doherty power amplifier (DPA) in GaN technology, implementing a new approach to control the higher device harmonies, is presented. The DPA was designed to operate at 2.14GHz and with the aim to reduce as much as possible the chip size, without losing the Doherty operating principle. The measurement results in CW conditions at 2.14GHz had shown average drain efficiency higher than 55% at 6dB of back-off, with a saturated output power of 37dBm.
