Design methodologies for handheld PAs

Calogero Presti

Calogero D. Presti received the Ph.D. degree in electronics and automation engineering from the University of Catania, Italy, in 2008, working on CMOS Power Amplifiers and Silicon Photonics. During 2009 he was a postdoctoral researcher at UC San Diego, mainly working on PA digital predistortion and envelope tracking. In 2010 he joined Qualcomm Inc., San Diego, CA, where he was part of the team that started the RF Front-End business in the company. There he designed several CMOS and GaAs PAs, and led some front-end module integration for sub-6GHz cellular applications. In 2019 he joined IDT (now part of Renesas) where he designed all the PAs used in mm-Wave beamformers (cellular, satcom, and radar) and occasionally supported the sub-6GHz businesses. Recently, he joined Kyocera, where he designs mm-wave power amplifiers for 5G infrastructure. Since 2017 he teaches the Power Amplifier design class at UC San Diego.
