一种超宽带幅相补偿数字开关衰减器电路An ultra-wideband amplitude-phase compensation digital switch attenuator circuit

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及射频集成电路领域,具体涉及一种超宽带幅相补偿数字开关衰减器电路。The invention relates to the field of radio frequency integrated circuits, in particular to an ultra-wideband amplitude and phase compensation digital switch attenuator circuit.

背景技术Background technique

衰减器是无线通信、相控阵雷达和仪器仪表系统的关键组成模块之一,其主要功能是提供幅度控制,来实现线性调整增益、增大动态范围的目的。在现有技术中,大多数步进衰减器依赖于三种基本拓扑类型:π型衰减器、T型衰减器、bridge-T型衰减器。在这些设计中,通过衰减单元的开关晶体管工作状态来确定信号是旁通还是衰减,因此这些类型的衰减器高度依赖于开关晶体管的性能,但是晶体管的寄生参数常常使得衰减状态下的附加相移变得较大,导致衰减器在使用过程中引入了不必要的相位波动。Attenuator is one of the key components of wireless communication, phased array radar and instrumentation systems. Its main function is to provide amplitude control to achieve the purpose of linearly adjusting gain and increasing dynamic range. In the prior art, most step attenuators rely on three basic topological types: pi-type attenuators, T-type attenuators, bridge-T-type attenuators. In these designs, the switching transistor operating state of the attenuation unit determines whether the signal is bypassed or attenuated, so these types of attenuators are highly dependent on the performance of the switching transistor, but the parasitics of the transistor often cause an additional phase shift in the attenuation state becomes larger, causing the attenuator to introduce unwanted phase fluctuations during use.
