Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Hybridkoppler für wenigstens zwei Ausgänge. Solche Hybridkoppler werden beispielsweise in Leistungsverstärkern verwendet, um durch Parallelschaltung mehrerer Leistungstransistoren eine entsprechende Leistungsvervielfachung zu erreichen.The invention relates to a hybrid coupler for at least two outputs. Such hybrid couplers are used, for example, in power amplifiers in order to achieve a corresponding multiplication of power by connecting a plurality of power transistors in parallel.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen breitbandigen Hybridkoppler raumsparenden Aufbaus für wenigstens zwei Ausgänge und/oder unterschiedlichen Koppelgrad zu schaffen.The invention has for its object to provide a broadband hybrid coupler space-saving structure for at least two outputs and / or different coupling degree.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung gelöst durch eine auf ein mit Leiterbahnen versehenes Substrat vertikal aufgebrachte, beidseitig mit einem metallisch leitenden Belag beschichtete Platine der Lange n λ/4 (n-ganzzahlig, n = 1 für 90°-Hybrid mit 2 Ausgängen), an die im Abstand von etwa λ/4 die Leiterbahnen des Trägersubstrats als Anschlüsse des Kopplers beiderseits herangeführt sind.This object is achieved according to the invention by a circuit board of length n λ / 4 (n-integer, n = 1 for 90 ° hybrid with 2 outputs) vertically applied to a substrate provided with conductor tracks and coated on both sides with a metallically conductive coating, to which the conductor tracks of the carrier substrate are guided as connections of the coupler on both sides at a distance of approximately λ / 4.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen des Erfindungsgegenstandes sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Advantageous refinements and developments of the subject matter of the invention are specified in the subclaims.

Nachstehend wird die Erfindung anhand von in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail below on the basis of exemplary embodiments illustrated in the drawing.

Es zeigen

  • Fig. 1 und 2 einen 3dB-Koppler mit zwei Ausgängen im Schaltbild und in der technischen Realisierung,
  • Fig. 3,4 u. 5 einen 4,7dB-Koppler mit drei Ausgängen im Schaltbild und in der technischen Realisierung.
Show it
  • 1 and 2 a 3dB coupler with two outputs in the circuit diagram and in the technical implementation,
  • Fig. 3.4 u. 5 a 4.7 dB coupler with three outputs in the circuit diagram and in the technical implementation.

Figur 1 zeigt einen 3dB-Koppler im Schaltbild, der vier Anschlüsse aufweist. Anschluß 1 bildet dabei den Eingang für das Signal (Input), die Anschlüsse 2 und 3 bilden die Ausgänge des Kopplers, an denen jeweils die Hälfte der Eingangsleistung, jedoch um 909 phasenverschoben, entnehmbar ist. Am Anschluß 4, auch als entkoppelter Ausgang (Isolator) bezeichnet, tritt keine Leistung auf.FIG. 1 shows a 3dB coupler in the circuit diagram, which has four connections. Connection 1 forms the input for the signal (input), connections 2 and 3 form the outputs of the coupler, from which half of the input power can be removed, but out of phase by 90 9 . No power occurs at connection 4, also known as a decoupled output (isolator).

Die technische Realisierung des 3dB-Koppler zeigt Figur 2. Der Koppler besteht aus einer vertikal auf ein Trägersubstrat ( in der Figur nur angedeutet) aufgebrachten, beidseitig Cu-beschichteten Platine P mit dem Länge-HöhenVerhältnis a:b. Die Länge a entspricht "A./4, die Höhe b läßt sich aus dem Wellenwiderstand ZO=50 Ohm zweier parallel laufender Leitungen ermitteln. Die Platine P besteht aus einem dielektrischen Material der relativen Dielektrizitätskonstante εr≈2,3...10. Es wird vorteilhafterweise ein Wert im unteren Bereich der genannten Zahlenwerte gewählt, wodurch sich breitere Leiterbahnen und damit eine festere Kopplung (elektrisches Streufeld ist kleiner) ergeben. Die Leitungsanschlüsse des Kopplers sind als Leiterbahnen etwa im Endbereich der Platine P auf dem Substrat aufgebracht und an die Platine herangeführt. Die Leiterbahn 2 kann auch, wie in der Fig. 2 gezeichnet, isoliert unter der vertikal angeordneten Platine hindurchgeführt werden.The technical implementation of the 3dB coupler is shown in FIG. 2. The coupler consists of a circuit board P coated vertically on a carrier substrate (only indicated in the figure) with the length-to-height ratio a: b. The length a corresponds to "A./4, the height b can be determined from the characteristic impedance ZO = 50 ohms of two lines running in parallel. The circuit board P consists of a dielectric material of the relative dielectric constant ε r ≈2.3 ... 10. A value in the lower range of the numerical values mentioned is advantageously selected, which results in wider conductor tracks and thus a firmer coupling (stray electrical field is smaller). The line connections of the coupler are applied as conductor tracks in the end region of the board P on the substrate and to the The conductor track 2 can, as shown in FIG. 2, also be passed through in isolation under the vertically arranged circuit board.

Der Koppelmechanismus ist der gleiche wie bei den herkömmlichen Parallel-Line-Kopplern, jedoch wird wegen der weitgehenden Vermeidung von Feldlinien zur Masse ein hoher Koppelgrad erreicht. Der flächenmäßige Raumbedarf beträgt etwa λ/4 X Substratdicke, die elektrische Bandbreite dabei ist für 0,3dB Ripple etwa 30%.The coupling mechanism is the same as that of the conventional parallel line couplers, but a high degree of coupling is achieved due to the largely avoidance of field lines to the ground. The space requirement is about λ / 4 X substrate thickness, the electrical bandwidth is about 30% for 0.3 dB Ripple.

Diese Art des Koppleraufbaus erlaubt es, auch in einfachster Weise die Anzahl der Ausgänge zu erhöhen und auch die Koppelgrade unterschiedlich einzustellen. Dabei ist die Anzahl der Ausgänge nicht binär begrenzt, also 2n (n=1,2,...), wie dies beim Zusammenschalten von einfachen Ringhybriden der Fall ist.This type of coupler design allows the number of outputs to be increased in a very simple manner and the coupling degrees to be set differently. The number of outputs is not limited in binary terms, i.e. 2 n (n = 1,2, ...), as is the case when interconnecting simple ring hybrids.

Eine wichtige Koppleranordnung mit 3 x (-4,7dB) und 0°, 90°, 180° zur Parallelschaltung von drei Leistungstransistoren zur Leistungsverdreifachung bei gleichzeitig gutem Stehwellenverhältnis am Ein- und Ausgang zeigt die Ausführungsform des Kopplers nach den Figuren 3, 4 u. 5 Dabei handelt es sich gleichsam um zwei seriell hintereinandergeschaltete Koppler, wobei der erste Koppler einen Koppelgrad von 4,7dB und der zweite einen von 3dB aufweist, so daß an den drei Ausgängen jeweils gleiche Anteile der Leistung, nämlich 1/3 der Eingangsleistung, erscheinen. Diese sind dann phasenmäßig um jeweils 900 zueinander verschoben. Anschluß 1 ist dabei wiederum der Anschluß für das Eingangssignal (Input), die Anschlüsse 2, 3 und 4 dienen der Entnahme der Ausgangssignale, die Anschlüsse 5 und 6 sind wellenwiderstandsmäßig abgeschlossen und an Masse gelegt (entkoppelte Ausgänge).An important coupler arrangement with 3 x (-4.7dB) and 0 °, 90 °, 180 ° for the parallel connection of three power transistors for tripling the power with a good standing wave ratio at the input and output is shown in the embodiment of the coupler according to FIGS. 3, 4 and. 5 These are, as it were, two series-connected couplers, the first coupler having a coupling degree of 4.7dB and the second one having 3dB, so that the three outputs have the same proportion of the power, namely 1/3 of the input power . These are then shifted in phase by 90 0 to each other. Connection 1 is again the connection for the input signal (input), connections 2, 3 and 4 are used for taking the output signals, connections 5 and 6 are terminated in terms of wave resistance and connected to ground (decoupled outputs).

Die technische Realisierung dieser Ausführungsform gemäß Figur 4 zeigt, daß die Platine P hierbei die Länge 2 x A/4 aufweist. Auf der dem Eingangsanschluß 1 zugekehrten Seite ist die Anschlußleiterbahn über die Hälfte der Platinenlänge längs zu dieser weitergeführt. Dieser Auschnitt entspricht dem ersten Koppler mit einem Koppelgrad von 4,7dB. Die in der Figur vordere Seite der Platine P, an der die λ/4-lange Leiterbahn auf dem Substrat entlanggeführt ist, ist durchgehend metallisiert, während die in der Figur rückseitig liegende Platinenseite in der Mitte eine Ausnehung (U) aufweist und so den Leitungsbelag in zwei Hälften auftrennt. An jeweils einen dieser Leitungsbeläge sind die Anschlußbahnen für die Anschlüsse 2 und 3 herangeführt. Der Anschluß zur Entnahme des dritten Signalanteiles befindet sich im Endbereich der Platine P an der in der Figur vorn liegenden Seite.The technical implementation of this embodiment according to FIG. 4 shows that the board P has a length of 2 × A / 4. On the side facing the input connection 1, the connecting conductor track is extended along this to half the length of the board. This section corresponds to the first coupler with a coupling degree of 4.7 dB. The front side of the figure Circuit board P, on which the λ / 4-long conductor track is guided along the substrate, is metallized throughout, while the circuit board side lying on the back in the figure has a recess (U) in the middle and thus separates the cable covering in half. The connecting tracks for connections 2 and 3 are brought to one of these line coverings. The connection for extracting the third signal component is located in the end region of the board P on the side lying at the front in the figure.

Fig. 5 zeigt 'n einer Detaildarstellung die Metallisierungsflächen der Kopplerplatine für den 4,7-dB-Koppler nach Fig. 4, die auf beiden Seiten für den unterschiedlichen Kopplungsgrad verschiedene Höhen aufweisen. Die Metallisierungsflächen sind dabei unter einem vergrößerten gegenseitigen Abstand angeordnet.FIG. 5 shows a detailed representation of the metallization areas of the coupler board for the 4.7 dB coupler according to FIG. 4, which have different heights on both sides for the different degree of coupling. The metallization areas are arranged at an increased mutual distance.
