Great presentation, however, the use of the word "bias" has been misunderstood, and misused by our East Asian friends. Bias is an old English word, and basically means "deviation from some normal condition". You can bias a gate, a grid, or a base, in an amplifier, to set its idle or quiescent current (Idq) and operation class. If "zero" bias it has no voltage. You can self-bias, cathode bias, have Class A-, B- or C-bias, have negative or positive bias. It has nothing to do with drain-, plate-, or collector power. You don't "bias" your soldering iron, or your Tesla when you plug it in, you power it. The word Bias has taken on a "mystery" meaning by some East Asian engineering students. Maybe Google Translate did it. No reason to repeat the misappropriation of their folly. Please make it English.

Can an inline amp be damaged by wrong installation (signal going in from the OUT port & going out from the IN port)?
Depending or your application and power level it definitely could be damaged.
I need a help in design 30 to 512 MHz Doherty amplifier with power output of 25 W and 100W.
