            Abstract : 
A program is written to design and analyse low voltage Class E power amplifiers. Some recently published Class E amplifiers will be used to verify the program. After this step some new insides will be given. One of the major conclusions will be that the resistance in the DC feed inductor must be incorporated in the design process. This will lead to better power amplifiers in the future, which can work at higher frequencies, higher output powers and higher efficiencies.
