Embodiment
Along with updating of CMOS technology, make over and in the transceiver RF front-end circuit, be difficult to integrated receipts/send out a switch and become possibility now.The present invention proposes a kind of consideration P trap/dark N trap different and the high performance radio-frequency receiving-transmitting switching circuit of dark N trap/P substrate physical device effect with conventional design.
Metal-oxide-semiconductor has very high impedance to frequency microwave under the shutoff situation, and when conducting; Show very low impedance again; Can make switch, in application scenarios such as frequency microwave switch or attenuators, its circuit parameter requires device to have less insertion loss and bigger isolation parameters.Switch mosfet comes the break-make of control circuit through grid; Form switching circuit; The general switch that adopts single-pole double throw; DC port through control VCTL and its reverse VCTLB can be connected to emission or receiving terminal with antenna respectively, accomplishes signal to the reception of low noise amplifier or with the emission function of signal from the power amplifier to the antenna.The present invention designs and has proposed a kind of employing 4 end cmos devices; The combinational circuit model that adds the double diode model of describing P trap/dark N trap and dark N trap/P substrate designs high performance radio-frequency switch circuit; Can obtain all isolations, insert RF indexes such as the loss and the linearity.
The present invention has realized the precise design of high performance radio-frequency switch circuit through utilizing the circuit design of considering the actual physics device architecture.Because RF switch need have the ability of processing power; And this depends on the linearity index of RF switch; Generally; Because device instantaneous PN junction conducting meeting during operation causes the linearity to be degenerated, be to improve one of way of the RF switch linearity so avoid the conducting of the junction diode of parasitism.In Fig. 1; Adopt comparatively commonly used at present being used to reduce noise and design novel radio-frequency switch circuit with the mixed signal technology that improves isolation performance with triple-well; Utilize 2 extra parasitic diodes of its generation: P trap and dark N n; Dark N trap and P substrate diode, the circuit of drawn the P trap/dark N trap and the double diode of dark N trap/P substrate is not considered the influence of these 2 parasitic diodes in common circuit design; Adopt the method for designing of dark N trap and P trap dual suspension to realize big linearity index in the present invention specially in order to improve the linearity; Owing to be floating dummy status, when transistor turns, the source body can not exert an influence to inserting loss with the parasitic capacitance of leaking body simultaneously.
As shown in Figure 1, when the P trap was floated sky by a big resistance, the transient voltage of P trap was actual in the signal voltage of booting; Thereby avoided source body/leakage body diode to be improved the linearity like this by the large-signal forward conduction; Simultaneously since dark N trap also by floating empty, so cause the P trap and the diode of dark N trap also to be placed in safe state, for dark N trap and this diode of P type substrate; Really might be by forward conduction; But because the decay property of these bootstrap voltage mode effects, need the required signal voltage of the diode in this outside of forward conduction quite big, this makes this radio-frequency switch circuit design still can obtain the big linearity and is operated under the normal condition simultaneously.
Fig. 2 has provided the radio-frequency switch circuit structure chart of design; Each transistor has wherein all comprised the electronic circuit structure in the round frame of dotted line; Antenna wherein; TX and RX are respectively the antenna of RF switch, transmit and receive port, and the control signal that Vctl and VctlB are respectively the control RF switch is a complementary voltage.
The present invention is not limited to the execution mode that preceding text are discussed.More than the description of embodiment is intended in order to describe and explain the technical scheme that the present invention relates to.Based on the conspicuous conversion of the present invention enlightenment or substitute and also should be considered to fall into protection scope of the present invention.Above embodiment is used for disclosing best implementation method of the present invention, so that those of ordinary skill in the art can use numerous embodiments of the present invention and multiple alternative reaches the object of the invention.
