Description

Method for testing package impedance of ultrahigh frequency RFID chip by using resonance method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of electronics, relates to a method for testing the impedance of an ultrahigh frequency RFID chip band package, and particularly relates to a method for testing the impedance of the ultrahigh frequency RFID chip band package by using a resonance method.
Background
The ultra-high frequency RFID technology can be applied to various industries such as logistics, traffic, anti-counterfeiting, clothing and the like. Compared with the traditional high-frequency technology, the ultrahigh-frequency RFID technology has the advantages of long reading distance and strong anti-collision function.
In order to take advantage of the long read distance of RFID technology, the impedance of the uhf antenna generally needs to be designed as the conjugate of the chip impedance. Although the chip manufacturer gives the impedance value of the chip, the package greatly affects the impedance value of the chip because of the characteristics of the ultra-high frequency. Various packaging forms, even different manufacturers of the same packaging form, can result in different impedances of the packaged chips, which are not equal to design reference values provided by the chip manufacturers. Therefore, there is a need to find a way to test the impedance of packaged chips.
In the prior art, impedance is typically tested in the form of a radio frequency port connected across the packaged chip, but doing so can lead to at least two problems. First, the package size of the chip is typically very small (within 1mm of area), and the bond wires are typically quite large (on the order of 1cm x 1 cm), which can result in the bond wires having a larger impact than the package parasitics, resulting in test failure. Second, devices that test ultra-high frequency impedance, such as network analyzers, are typically only suitable for testing 50 ohm impedance, and impedance tests that deviate from 50 ohm are inaccurate, whereas ultra-high frequency RFID chips typically have a complex impedance value of around 20+j200ohm, resulting in test failures.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defects of the prior art, the invention provides a method for testing the package impedance of the ultrahigh frequency RFID chip by using a resonance method, which not only can solve the problems in the prior art, but also has other beneficial effects.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme that the method for testing the package impedance of the ultra-high frequency RFID chip by using the resonance method comprises the following steps:
the first step, a first coil and a second coil are manufactured, and the first coil and the second coil can be respectively packaged with the same ultrahigh frequency
An RFID chip;
step two, manufacturing a third coil, wherein the third coil is a coil with a high self-resonance value and is electrically connected with a network component
An analyzer;
third, the first coil, the second coil and the third coil which are respectively packaged with the same ultrahigh frequency RFID chip are used for mutual
Sensing, namely testing the resonance values of two coils with the ultrahigh frequency RFID chips;
and fourthly, obtaining the real part and the imaginary part of the package impedance of the ultrahigh frequency RFID chip by utilizing data processing.
The inductance value of the first coil is L 1 The inductance value of the second coil is L 2 And satisfies: l (L) 1 >L 2
The inductance value of the third coil is L 3 And satisfies the following: l (L) 1 *5>L 3 >L 2 /5。
The self-resonance value of the third coil is omega 3 =2πf 3 And satisfies: f (f) 3 >1.2GHz。
The third coil is connected with one port of the network analyzer, and the network analyzer is set into a mode for testing the absolute value of the s parameter; and when the first coil and the second coil of the same ultrahigh frequency RFID chip are packaged and are sequentially close to the third coil for mutual inductance, the absolute value of the s parameter of the network analyzer is changed.
The principle of the invention is described below:
two coils are made, namely a first coil L 1 And a second coil L 2 The inductance values of the two coils are L respectively 1 And L 2 Has L 1 >L 2 . The inductance values of the two coils can be obtained using test or simulation methods, since the coils are typically a few centimeters in diameter, it is easy to obtain the correct values, both for testing and for simulation. The same package is then used to package the ultra-high frequency RFID chip onto both coils. The chip impedance value is capacitive, so LC resonance is formed with the inductive coil.
As for the third coil L 3 The size of which is equal to that of the first coil L 1 Second coil L 2 Similar but go throughNormally empty, where a third coil L is defined 3 The self-resonance value of the third coil L is a frequency value with the imaginary part of the s parameter of 0 measured by a network analyzer 3 The network analyzer is connected with one port of the network analyzer, and the network analyzer is set into a mode for testing the absolute value of the s parameter. And then the first coil L 1 And a third coil L 3 Facing and bringing the first coil L 1 Near the third coil L 3 The absolute value curve of the s parameter can be observed on a network analyzer, and an obvious peak value appears, and the frequency of the peak value is the coil L 1 Is of resonance value omega 1 =2πf 1 The same operation mode can measure the second coil L 2 Is of resonance value omega 2 =2πf 2
And finally, the real part and the imaginary part of the ultrahigh frequency RFID chip can be obtained by utilizing data post-processing.

This is the measured coil L 1 Resonance value.
In fig. 4, the horizontal axis shows the scanning frequency, from 0.7GHz to 1GHz, the vertical axis shows the absolute value of s parameter, and it can be seen that the absolute value of s parameter has a minimum value e1, and the data of the minimum value is 0.8521GHz.
