Description

Radio-frequency (RF) switch
Technical field
Relate generally to of the present invention is used for radio frequency (RF) switch of radio-frequency unit (such as mobile communications device), more particularly, relates to the radio-frequency (RF) switch that has a plurality of field-effect transistors (RF) to be connected in series thereon.
Background technology
In recent years, used the radio-frequency (RF) switch (SPNT: hilted broadsword (pole) N throws (through): N represents port number) with a plurality of ports in mobile telephone unit, above-mentioned mobile telephone unit is by a plurality of CF signal communications.Radio-frequency (RF) switch comprises the field-effect transistor (FET) that is made of various kinds of compound semiconductors.This radio-frequency (RF) switch is required to have low harmonic performance, more particularly, be the first-harmonic that transmits-70dBc or following.For harmonic components being suppressed on the low level, require field-effect transistor to improve the linearity of resistance under conducting state, have fabulous cut-off state power simultaneously.
In order to improve cut-off state power, usually, field-effect transistor is connected in the mode of M level series connection.Fig. 1 represents an example of the field-effect transistor of M level series connection.All be at all field-effect transistors under the situation of cut-off state, radiofrequency signal will be passed through rf signal line.All be at all field-effect transistors under the situation of conducting state, radiofrequency signal will be crossed over the field-effect transistor arrival point.All be under the situation of cut-off state at all field-effect transistors that the M level is connected in series, in theory, each grade only receives the voltage of 1/M.As if the voltage of representing radiofrequency signal with V, the voltage that then is applied to each field-effect transistor is V/M.Yet in fact, each field-effect transistor all is subjected to the influence of this field-effect transistor parasitic capacitance over the ground, and above-mentioned parasitic capacitance is represented as Cp in Fig. 2.With reference to Fig. 2, Cds represents that between the drain electrode of each field-effect transistor and the electric capacity between the source electrode Cg represents between the grid of each field-effect transistor and source electrode or the electric capacity between grid and drain electrode.With reference to Fig. 3 A, the impedance Z cp of parasitic capacitance Cp over the ground is connected to the impedance Z of the field-effect transistor of each grade.Correspondingly, shown in Fig. 3 B, the impedance of each grade is unequal (Z → Z ' (<Z)).Because the disparity of above-mentioned impedance between at different levels, so voltage V1 is applied to the field-effect transistor (impedance Z) of the most close (or being directly connected to) rf signal line, wherein, the voltage V1 voltage V2 that other are at different levels greater than being applied to (impedance Z ' (<Z)) (<V1).So just produce a problem, that is, and the numerical value that processing power (handling power) becomes and calculates less than from following logical formula 1.
(formula 1)
Pmax=2[M(Vp-Vcont)] 2/Zo
Here, M represents the progression that is connected in series, and Vp represents pinch off (pinch-off) voltage, at this voltage place, field-effect transistor becomes from conducting and ends, and vice versa, Vcont is the control voltage that is applied to the grid of field-effect transistor, and Zo is a system impedance, and Pmax is maximum processing power.
In order to address the above problem, as shown in Figure 4, propositions such as Mitchell B.Shifrin are added capacitor C 1 and C2 to and are gone at different levels, change over the ground parasitic capacitance thus and (see that people such as MitchellB.Shifrin is published in IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory andTechnique, Vol.37, No.12, December 1989, and pp.2134-2141 is entitled as " Monolithic FET structures for High-Power Control ComponentApplications " literary composition) (hereinafter referred to as document 1).By capacitor C 1 and C2 are followed the field-effect transistor parallel connection, impedance will be assigned to each level equably, and high frequency voltage V is divided into V1, V2 and V3 (V1=V2=V3) equably simultaneously.
With reference to Fig. 5 A and 5B, Japanese Patent Application 7-70245 number (hereinafter referred to as document 2) and Japanese Patent Application 9-8621 number (hereinafter referred to as document 3) disclose capacitor C a in Fig. 5 A and another capacitor C b in Fig. 5 B, added to respectively between source electrode or drain electrode and the grid, and the voltage that is distributed between grid and source electrode is offset wittingly.Fig. 6 A is illustrated under the situation of not adding capacitor C a and Cb, the variation of another voltage difference (V2-V3) between the voltage difference between V1 and the V2 (V1-V2) and V2 and the V3.Fig. 6 B represents, under the situation of having added capacitor C a such shown in Fig. 5 A and 5B and Cb, and the variation of voltage difference (V1-V2) and voltage difference (V2-V3).Here, V1 is a radiofrequency signal voltage, and V2 is the voltage at the tie point place between capacitor C a and grid, and V3 is the voltages at nodes of two field-effect transistors of being connected in series.Symbol Vp among Fig. 6 A and the 6B represents pinch-off voltage.The use of additional capacitor Ca and Cb makes the voltage that is distributed between grid and the source electrode be offset.Even radio-frequency voltage has big amplitude, this voltage also can be biased, thereby makes grid voltage be no more than pinch-off voltage Vp.Therefore, processing power is improved.
Yet, in document 1 routine techniques disclosed and shown in Figure 4, there is a problem, that is, signal leaks by capacitor C 1 and C2.When disconnecting, this leakage current descends insulativity.Cost will increase in the technology that forms electric capacity.In addition, have under the situation of low puncture voltage in capacitor C 1 and C2, the surge resistance such such as ESD may descend.In general, the electric capacity on the MMIC has low puncture voltage.
Also have with document 1 described identical problem in and Fig. 5 A disclosed and the routine techniques shown in the 5B at document 2 with 3.In addition, also have another problem, that is,, require field-effect transistor to have higher puncture voltage with there not being the circuit of capacitor C a and Cb to compare.
Also have, in recent years,, used High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) to come substituted metal semiconductor field effect transistor (MESFET) in order to reduce the insertion loss of switch.In general, when the resistance of conducting state reduces, because highly concentrated channel layer makes puncture voltage be tending towards reducing.Therefore, may use routine techniques disclosed in document 1 to 3, that have various break-down voltage problem to solve the problems referred to above with regard to no longer including.
Summary of the invention
Catalogue of the present invention be exactly to address the above problem and provide a kind of radio-frequency (RF) switch.More particularly, the voltage that is applied to the field-effect transistor that is connected in series under cut-off state will be improved processing power with low cost simultaneously easily by five equilibrium.
