Abstract
Radio frequency (RF) power pallets including primary or first circuit boards and daughter or second circuit boards are described. An example RF power pallet includes a first circuit board, an RF power amplifier coupled to the first circuit board, and a second circuit board coupled to the first circuit board. The second circuit board includes a bias voltage driver for a gate of the RF power amplifier. The first circuit board comprises a first core material and the second circuit board comprises a second core material different than the first core material.
