System and method for reducing output harmonics

Abstract:

In one form, a signal generator system such as a power amplifier system includes an amplification stage, a lowpass filter, and a controller. The amplification stage includes a first amplifier having an input for receiving an input signal, a control input for receiving a first control signal, and an output. The lowpass filter has a first input coupled to the output of the first amplifier, and an output. The controller has a first input coupled to the output of the lowpass filter, and a first output coupled to the control input of the first amplifier, wherein the controller varies the first control signal to reduce a difference between the output of the lowpass filter and a first target voltage level.
