The passband width and the in-band suppression are related to the first inductance L1 quality factor.
Also referring to fig. 2, the series branch of the first capacitor C1 and the first inductor L1 and the second capacitor C2 resonate in parallel at a frequency point f2, and a signal of the frequency point can pass through the high stop band characteristic.
The first parallel branch circuit has a capacitance characteristic at a frequency point higher than f2, and the equivalent capacitance value is Cp ', and Cp' and the second inductor L2 resonate at a frequency point f4, as shown in fig. 3. The frequency point f4 has low stop band resistance, the signals of the frequency point are filtered, and the signals of other frequency points can pass through, so that the filtering of the interference signals of the second frequency point is realized. The stop band width and the in-band suppression degree are related to the quality factors of the second inductor L2 and the first inductor L1.
As shown in fig. 4, the third capacitor C3, the third inductor L3 and the input capacitor of the low noise amplifier resonate together at a frequency point f3 to form a high stop band resistance characteristic, signals of the frequency point are filtered, and signals of other frequency points can pass through, so that the filtering of interference signals of the third frequency point is realized. And matching the characteristic impedance of the low-noise amplifier to the working characteristic impedance of the system at the frequency points except the f3 frequency point, so as to realize in-band matching and out-of-band suppression. The stop band width, in-band suppression of the second parallel branch is related to the inductance quality factor of the third inductance L3.
The filter circuit applied to the radio frequency front end provided by the application adopts fewer components, namely a capacitor and an inductor, so that the product cost is controlled, and higher encapsulation performance is ensured. And the first capacitor and the first inductor are connected to form a serial branch, and the serial branch and the second capacitor form a first parallel branch.
