Specific embodiment
The specific embodiment of the present invention is illustrated below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings：
Mobile phone components and parts used in the present embodiment include power amplifier (PA), duplexer (DPX), antenna switch module
(ASM), coaxial connector (Connector), PCB main board.Mainly realized by following 3 step：Step 1, matching common port chain
Road is to 50ohm impedances；The convergence of step 2, matching duplexer；The loadpull of step 3, mesh power amplifier, including effect
Rate loadpull, power loadpull, ALCRloadpull, gain loadpull etc..3 steps by more than, are capable of achieving transmitter
Launch in optimum linear and optimum efficiency.
System shown in Figure 3 is common mobile phone terminal transmitting chain system, and baseband signal becomes to penetrate through Direct Conversion process
Frequency modulation, Jing after radio-frequency power amplifier amplifies, transmits to duplexer, reaches radio frequency seat through antenna switch module afterwards
Son.Because the single-ended impedance of each chip on link is 50ohm, so the impedance that need to only match microstrip line or strip line is lost
Match somebody with somebody.The first step seeks to match antenna switch module to the mismatch of the impedance line of radio frequency stand.The Port1 mouths of Network Analyzer connect
The outfan of antenna switch module, Port2 mouths connect radio frequency stand, as shown in Figure 4.It is common port in view of this section of impedance line,
When measuring S21 with Network Analyzer, start-stop frequency will cover the full frequency band that pcb board is supported, usually：StartFreq=
600MHz, Stop Freq=2700MHz, observe Smith circle diagrams, according to first go here and there after and principle, change L1, the value of C1, C2,
Arc is made near the center of circle diagram.
Second step fixes L1, and the Port1 mouths of Network Analyzer are met the output of power amplifier, Port2 by the value of C1, C2
Mouth connects radio frequency stand, as shown in Figure 5.Remove power amplifier on pcb board simultaneously, prevent high-power output from damaging instrument.It is main
It is to adjust L2, L3, C3 to work, so L4 series connection 0ohm, C4, C5 do not paste device.Because antenna switch module is active device, institute
To need upper electricity, and pcb board is connected to into debugging acid, enters the pattern that send out by force.Because the duplexer of most of producers is all in capacitive,
So the preferential shunt inductance on L3, and frequency range is higher, inductance value is less, observes the convergence journey of Smith circle diagram super band figures
Degree.According to the priority of L3.L2.C3, frequency range figure is set to gather convergence.Then the value of L3.L2.C3 is fixed.
3rd step, according to the Loadpull charts that power amplifier producer provides, finds out most excellent ACLR and justifies and most excellent
Efficiency is justified, and according to tendency, finds out a point, while taking into account efficiency and ACLR, and as a reference point, regulation L4, C4 is put with this,
C5, makes frequency range figure concentrate to this point and draws close, then fixed L4, the value of C4, C5, as shown in fig. 6, in Fig. 6, Vramp=
2.0V, Vdd=3.5V, Pin=3dBm, f=824MHz.
In view of active test and the difference of non-source test, one piece of complete pcb board need to be again taken, change the L1 for determining before,
The value of C1, C2, L3.L2.C3, L4, C4, C5, with debugging acid and comprehensive test instrument observation saturation power, observes ACLR and work(after calibration
Consumption, this group matching under normal circumstances is optimal value, and ACLR and power consumption can be up to standard.If ACLR and power consumption are both deteriorated,
That will return to origin, match again according to three above-mentioned steps；If one of them improves for ACLR and power consumption, another change
Difference, then observe again loadpull, and a point is found out again, more takes into account poor that.Afterwards, L4, C4 are adjusted, C5's
Value, makes frequency range figure concentrate to this point and draws close, and then fixes L4, the value of C4, C5.Afterwards by calibration, power consumption is observed again
And ACLR.So test repeatedly, the compromise balance until obtaining power consumption and ACLR.
By these steps, expeditiously transmitting chain can be matched, it is to avoid blind to adjust the time caused to waste, with
And cannot balance efficiency and the linearity this conflict.
The above is the preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is noted that for those skilled in the art
For, on the premise of without departing from principle of the present invention, some improvements and modifications can also be made, these improvements and modifications
Should be regarded as protection scope of the present invention.
