Original Abstract Submitted

for example, an apparatus may include an input to receive an input signal in a first voltage domain; a multi-mode power amplifier switchable between a plurality of power modes to generate an output signal based on the input signal; and an output to provide the output signal. for example, the multi-mode power amplifier may be configured to provide the output signal in the first voltage domain at a first power mode, and to provide the output signal in a second voltage domain at a second power mode. for example, a maximal voltage of the second voltage domain may be at least two times a maximal voltage of the first voltage domain.
