Wireless Amplifier Circuitry - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18359458 titled 'Wireless Amplifier Circuitry
Simplified Explanation
The electronic device described in the patent application includes wireless circuitry with a processor, a transceiver circuit, a front-end module, and an antenna. The front-end module contains amplifier circuitry, such as a low noise amplifier, for amplifying received radio-frequency signals. The amplifier circuitry operates in different modes based on its environment, with multiple amplifying cascode stages coupled in parallel, some of which can be selectively enabled. Additionally, the amplifier circuitry includes an intermodulation distortion suppression circuit and an n-path filter coupled to different amplifying cascode stages, with one or more of these portions being active depending on the operating mode.
- The electronic device features wireless circuitry with a front-end module containing amplifier circuitry, including a low noise amplifier.

Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device may include wireless circuitry with a processor, a transceiver circuit, a front-end module, and an antenna. The front-end module may include amplifier circuitry such as a low noise amplifier for amplifying received radio-frequency signals. The amplifier circuitry may operation in different modes based on its operating environment. Accordingly, the amplifier circuitry may include multiple amplifying cascode stages coupled in parallel, some of which may be selectively enabled. The amplifier circuitry may include an intermodulation distortion suppression circuit coupled to an amplifying cascode stage and an n-path filter coupled to another amplifying cascode stage. One or more of these amplifier circuitry portions may be active depending on its operating mode.
