Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of CMOS radio frequency integrated circuit design, and particularly relates to a compact radio frequency receiving and transmitting change-over switch based on CMOS.
Background
For a time division duplex radio frequency communication system, a receiving and transmitting change-over switch is a key device for realizing the switching of receiving and transmitting functions of the radio frequency system. As shown in fig. 1, the transceiver switch is a three-port device, and is composed of a transmitting branch switch and a receiving branch switch, where pin1 is an antenna port, pin2 is a transmitting path port, and pin3 is a receiving path port. In normal operation, one of the transmitting branch switch and the receiving branch switch is in an on state, and the other switch is in an off state. When the radio frequency communication system works in a transmitting mode, the transmitting branch switch is turned on, and the receiving branch switch is turned off, so that signals of the transmitting channel can be transmitted to an antenna end through the turned-on transmitting branch switch, and meanwhile, the turned-off receiving branch can prevent the signals from entering the receiving channel. When the radio frequency communication system works in a receiving mode, the receiving branch switch is turned on, and the transmitting branch switch is turned off, so that signals received by the antenna can be transmitted to the receiving channel through the turned-on receiving branch switch, and meanwhile, the turned-off transmitting branch can prevent the signals from entering the transmitting channel.
In order to improve energy efficiency and reduce interference, a communication system generally needs to use a low-loss and high-isolation transceiver switch. In the following analysis, the port impedances of pin1, pin2, pin3 were all defaulted to the standard 50 ohms. Specifically, in the reception mode: since the receiving path side is more important for low noise and suppression performance for the transmit leakage signal, it is required to achieve as low insertion loss as possible between pin1 and pin3, and as high isolation as possible between pin1 and pin2, and good port standing wave performance is required for pin1 and pin 3. In the transmit mode: since the high linearity and high output power are more important on the transmit path side, this requires as high linearity and low insertion loss as possible between pin1 and pin2, and good port standing wave performance for pin1 and pin 2.
The radio frequency receiving and transmitting change-over switch designed by adopting the low-cost CMOS process can improve the system integration level, reduce the volume of a communication system and reduce the production cost. Based on the CMOS process, there is a transceiver switch adopting a transmission line-parallel switch type structure. As shown in fig. 2, pin1 and pin2 are separated by a 1/4 lambda transmission line T1, the characteristic impedance of the transmission line T1 is 50 ohms, a switch formed by an NMOS tube NM1 is added at pin2 and connected in parallel to GND, the drain electrode of NM1 is connected to pin2, the source electrode of NM1 is connected to ground, and the gate electrode of NM1 is controlled by the level of node a; the pin1 and the pin3 are separated by a 1/4 lambda transmission line T2, the characteristic impedance of the transmission line T2 is 50 ohms, a switch formed by an NMOS tube NM2 is added at the pin3 and connected to GND in parallel, the drain electrode of the NM2 is connected with the pin3, the source electrode of the NM2 is connected with the ground, and the grid electrode of the NM2 is controlled by the level of a node B; ground level=gnd of the circuit, supply voltage=vdd. In the following analysis, the port impedances of pin1, pin2, pin3 were all defaulted to the standard 50 ohms. In the receive mode: the level=vdd of the node a, NM1 works in a deep linear region, the switch formed by the node a is in an on state, the on resistance of the NM1 is close to 0 ohm, and the impedance seen from the pin1 to the pin2 is enabled to be towards infinity through the impedance transformation function of the 1/4 lambda transmission line T1, so that the radio frequency signal is prevented from flowing into the transmission line T1 from the pin 1; level=gnd of node B, NM2 operating in the cut-off region, the switch it constitutes being in the off state; the radio frequency signal may be transmitted from pin1 to pin3 via transmission line T2. In the transmit mode: the level=vdd of the node B, NM2 works in the deep linear region, the switch formed by the node B is in an on state, the on resistance of the NM2 is close to 0 ohm, and then the impedance seen from pin1 to pin3 is theoretically towards infinity through the impedance transformation function of the 1/4 lambda transmission line T2, so that the radio frequency signal is prevented from flowing into the transmission line T2 from pin 1; level=gnd of node a, NM1 is operating in the cut-off region, the switch it constitutes being in the off state; the radio frequency signal may be transmitted from pin2 to pin1 via transmission line T1.
The problems with the above solution are:
1) The 1/4 lambda transmission line based on the CMOS technology is long, resulting in high loss and large occupied area.
2) In the emission mode, the NMOS tube NM1 should always work in the cut-off region, but due to the parasitic capacitance between the drain electrode of NM1 and the grid electrode of NM1, when the emission signal is increased to a certain extent, the transient voltage generated by the leakage of the emission signal to the grid electrode can cause the NM1 working region to be converted into a linear region, so that the on-resistance of NM1 is converted from high resistance to low resistance; with further increase of the transmit signal, the transmit signal at pin2 will have an increasing proportion of branches through NM1 to GND, resulting in a phenomenon of gain compression of the transmit signal, which limits the high linearity performance of the transmit path.
3) In the transmitting mode, although the threshold of the gate voltage capable of converting the NM1 operating region into the linear region can be improved by adding a static level switching port to the drain and the source of the NM1, so as to relieve the gain compression phenomenon occurring when the transmitting signal is increased, and improve the linearity performance of the switch in the transmitting mode, in order to ensure the normal operation of the NM2, it is also necessary to add a blocking capacitor in series in the signal path in the transmitting branch, which brings additional loss and increases the chip area.
