Hello all, In a RF power amplifier, why does the impedance looking into the PA change, with change in input power level? Thanks

Click to expand... For large signal AC analysis , you can't neglect effect of large input signal . V/I both are large , hence , input impedance will be a bit affected . Best Wishes Goldsmith
