A wideband Doherty amplifier circuit includes a main amplifier configured to operate in a linear mode, a peaking amplifier configured to operate in a non-linear mode and a Doherty combiner directly connected to an output of each amplifier so that no output match devices are in the path between the amplifier outputs and the Doherty combiner. The Doherty combiner is configured to present the same load impedance to each amplifier when both amplifiers are conducting and present a modulated load impedance to the main amplifier when the peaking amplifier is non-conducting so that a variation in the VSWR seen by the main amplifier is less than 5% over a plurality of frequency bands and/or so that the peaking amplifier has an off-state impedance spreading of 20 degrees or less over the plurality of frequency bands.
