[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In recent years, in mobile and communication equipment represented by mobile phones, the requirements for miniaturization, high density, and low cost of components are increasing. . In a mobile communication device, although it is a component called a radio frequency (RF) module that transmits and receives a local frequency signal between the antenna and the antenna, it is combined with a mobile communication device. The versatility, miniaturization, and cost reduction require miniaturization of high-frequency modules. In a high-frequency module, an antenna switch circuit, a power amplifier circuit, an input/output integration circuit, and various filter circuits are generally included. Among them, an output integrated circuit or various filter circuits can be formed by using a wiring pattern of -8-200835042 on a multilayer wiring board on which a semiconductor wafer (power amplifier circuit or the like) is mounted. Therefore, in order to achieve miniaturization or low cost of a high-frequency module, it is particularly advantageous to pursue such a miniaturization or low cost of the wiring pattern.
當在多層配線基板上形成輸出整合電路或是各種濾波 電路時,例如,係可考慮使用在專利文獻1〜專利文獻3 中所揭示一般之電感或是電容器。然而,若是將在專利文 獻1或專利文獻2中所揭示一般之螺旋電感以及電容器作 組合而構成各種濾波電路,則由於其電路面積係會增大, 且伴隨著配線之引繞,例如會有需要1 0層左右的配線基 板的情形,因此,小型化或是低成本化係成爲困難。又, 若是使用專利文獻3之技術,則雖然可以實現某種程度之 小型化又或是低成本化,但是由於電感係僅被形成有2層 ,因此電感係爲不足,在實用上,有僅能夠適用於對應較 高之頻率的濾波器之虞。進而,專利文獻3之構成,若是 從表面作投影並進行觀察,則係成爲在電感之旁被形成有 電容者,因此,係有電路面積增大之虞。 另一方面,作爲高頻模組之小型化、高密度化的進展 時之其他問題,係可想到有經由多層配線基板所產生的回 路(return path )之問題。例如,若是功率放大電路之輸 出訊號經由多層配線基板上之回路而回歸至輸入側,則會 產生震盪現象。此震盪現象,會在不必要之帶域上產生雜 訊,並對其他帶域之送收訊訊號造成妨礙,故會成爲錯誤 動作之原因,又,在電信法上亦會成爲問題。爲了追求高 頻模組之小型化、高密度化,解決此回路之問題一事係爲 -9- 200835042 重要。When an output integrated circuit or a plurality of filter circuits are formed on a multilayer wiring board, for example, a general inductance or a capacitor disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 can be considered. However, if a general filter circuit is formed by combining a general spiral inductor and a capacitor disclosed in Patent Document 1 or Patent Document 2, the circuit area is increased, and the wiring is accompanied by, for example, there is a Since a wiring board of about 10 layers is required, it is difficult to reduce the size or cost. Moreover, if the technique of Patent Document 3 is used, it is possible to achieve a certain degree of miniaturization or cost reduction. However, since the inductance system is formed only by two layers, the inductance system is insufficient, and practically, only Can be applied to filters corresponding to higher frequencies. Further, in the configuration of Patent Document 3, if a projection is made from the surface and a capacitance is formed next to the inductance, the circuit area is increased. On the other hand, as a problem in the progress of miniaturization and high density of the high-frequency module, there is a problem that a return path is generated via the multilayer wiring board. For example, if the output signal of the power amplifying circuit returns to the input side via the loop on the multilayer wiring board, oscillation will occur. This turbulence will cause noise in unnecessary areas and hinder the reception of other terrestrial signals. This will be the cause of the wrong action and will become a problem in telecommunications law. In order to pursue the miniaturization and high density of high-frequency modules, the problem of solving this loop is -9-200835042.

That is, as shown by the dotted line HD-SP of Fig. 18, the high-frequency wave component contained in the final stage RF amplified output signal of the final stage amplifier 12a of the RF power amplifier is transmitted to the antenna 16.

An output integration circuit 1 2c and a high-frequency wave removal filter 14 are connected between the final stage amplifier 1 2a and the main line of the directional combiner 13 with a final stage in which the high-frequency wave component is attenuated with a large attenuation rate. . However, the signal path of the dotted line HD-SP bypasses the output integrated circuit 12c of the final stage and the high-frequency wave removing filter 14. As a result, the high-frequency wave component of the output of the final stage amplifier 12a is the signal line between the sub-line of the directional combiner 13 and the gain control unit 17, the sub-line of the directional coupler 13, and the main line.

Further, by connecting the input node and the output node to the wiring pattern (capacitance pattern) formed in the plate shape at the third and fourth wiring layers, the capacitance 値 can be further increased. As a result, a small-sized or low-cost parallel resonant circuit can be realized, and by applying this to a filter circuit of a high-frequency module or the like, it is possible to achieve downsizing or cost reduction of the module.

此種對應於複數之帶域的高頻模組,由於係成爲較對 應於1個的帶域之高頻模組而更爲大型,因此,除了半導 體晶片的尺寸之外,亦被要求能將各種濾波電路等以更小 之面積又或是更低之成本來形成。於此,爲了追求多層配 線基板之小型化(薄膜化)或低成本化,例如,係以使用 被廣泛使用之具備有4層或5層左右的層積構造之陶瓷基 板等爲理想。此時,在此4層或5層之內,能夠將圖1之Such a high-frequency module corresponding to a plurality of bands is larger because it is a higher-frequency module corresponding to one band.

In the various filter circuits or output integration circuits of FIG. 1, a parallel resonant circuit composed of an inductor and a capacitor is included, and if the parallel resonant circuit can be formed into a small size without using an SMD member, the high frequency module is Miniaturization or low cost is beneficial. Such a parallel resonant circuit can be realized, for example, by the general configuration shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing a configuration of a resonance circuit according to a first embodiment of the present invention, wherein (a) is a perspective view, and (b) is a plan view showing each layer of (a). In the resonance circuit shown in FIGS. 2(a) and 2(b), for example, the second wiring layer LY2 including the first wiring layer 1^¥1 and the lower layer of -37-200835042 is sequentially used. It is realized by a multilayer wiring board of four layers of the fourth wiring layer LY4. In addition, the back of LY4 is a grounding electrode.
在LY1〜LY4中,係分別被形成有由將線路以略迴路 狀而圍繞約一圈之形狀所成的配線圖案MS21〜MS24。 MS21之其中一端係成爲訊號輸入節點Nin,另外一端係 經由被形成在自身之迴路的中心部之通孔導體VH13a,而 被連接於MS23&MS23,係其中一端經由被形成在自身之 迴路的中心部之通孔導體VH13a而被連接於前述之MS21 ,而另外一端經由被形成在自身之迴路的角隅部之通孔導 體VH34a而被連接於MS24。 MS24,係其中一端經由被形成在自身之迴路的角隅 部之通孔導體VH34a而被連接於前述之MS23,而另外一 端經由被形成在自身之迴路的側邊之通孔導體VH24a而被 連接於MS22。MS22,係其中一端經由被形成在自身之迴 路的側邊之通孔導體VH24a而被連接於前述之MS24,而 另外一端係成爲訊號輸出節點Nout。故而,當從Nin朝向 Nout而傳送了訊號的情況時,在各配線圖案MS21〜MS24 中,係以逆時針之迴路而傳送訊號,而MS21〜MS24係成 爲作爲電感而起作用。另外,亦可將Nin與Nout設爲相 反。又,在M S 2 3以及M S 2 4之各線路中,於一部份設置 有蛇行之形狀的原因,係爲了將線路長增長,而將電感値 增大之故。 於此’作爲圖2之構成全體,係等價地作爲由電感( -38- 200835042In LY1 to LY4, wiring patterns MS21 to MS24 formed by a shape in which a line is wound in a substantially loop shape by about one turn are formed, respectively. One end of the MS 21 is a signal input node Nin, and the other end is connected to the MS23 & MS 23 via a via-hole conductor VH13a formed at the center of its own circuit, one end of which is formed at the center of the loop formed by itself. The via-hole conductor VH13a is connected to the MS21 described above, and the other end is connected to the MS 24 via the via-hole conductor VH34a formed in the corner portion of the loop of the circuit. The MS 24 is connected to the MS 23 described above via a via-hole conductor VH34a formed in a corner portion of its own loop, and the other end is connected via a via-hole conductor VH24a formed on the side of its own loop. On MS22. The MS 22 is connected to the aforementioned MS 24 via a via-hole conductor VH24a formed on the side of its own path, and the other end is a signal output node Nout. Therefore, when a signal is transmitted from Nin to Nout, signals are transmitted in the counterclockwise loops in the respective wiring patterns MS21 to MS24, and the MSs 21 to MS24 function as inductances. Alternatively, you can set Nin to be the opposite of Nout. Further, in the respective lines of M S 2 3 and M S 2 4, the reason why the shape of the meandering is provided in one part is to increase the inductance 値 in order to increase the length of the line. Here, as a whole of the configuration of Fig. 2, it is equivalently used as an inductance (-38-200835042)
線圈)Lml與電容器(capacitor、電容)Cml所成之並聯 共振電路LC1而起作用。而,此並聯共振電路LC1之主 要的特徵,例如係爲以下所述一般。首先,第1點,係爲 經由配線之引繞,而使訊號輸入節點N i η與訊號輸出節點 N out間的電容成分增加一事。圖3(a),係爲圖2之並 聯共振電路LC1的簡易之等價電路圖,圖3 ( b ),係作 爲其之比較例,而爲在專利文獻1之圖8中所示的螺旋電 感Lcl之簡易的等價電路圖。 在圖3 ( a )所示之並聯共振電路LC 1中,第1配線 層LY1之訊號輸入節點Niii,係依序經由LY1之電感L1 、第3配線層LY3之電感L3、第4配線層LY4之電感L4 、以及第2配線層LY2之電感L2,而被連接於訊號輸出 節點Nout。L1〜L4,係爲分別對應於圖2之配線圖案 MS21〜MS24者。又,在Niri與Nout之間,係被連接有 成爲LY1與LY2間之層間電容的電容器C1,而在LY2與 LY3之間、LY3與LY4之間、LY4與背面之間,亦分別被 連接有成爲層間電容之電容器C2、C3、C4。 另一方面,在圖3 ( b )所示之螺旋電感Lc 1中,LY 1 之Nin,係依序經由LY1之電感LI 1、LY2之電感L12、 LY3之電感L13、以及LY4之電感L14,而被連接於Nout 。又,在LY1與LY2之間、LY3與LY4之間、LY4與背 面之間,亦分別被連接有成爲層間電容之電容器C 1 1、 C12、C13、C14。另外,在圖 3(a) 、(b)中,更嚴密 而言,例如係在圖3 ( a)之L3與L4的接點N1等,被插 -39- 200835042 入有伴隨著通孔導體之電感或電阻,又或是與此並聯地而 被插入有伴隨著LY3與LY4的層間電容之電容器,但是 ,於此,係簡易地以通孔導體而代表配線,並因應於此而 亦將電容器省略。此事,對於在圖3 ( a ) 、( b )中之其 他的通孔導體的存在場所而言,亦爲相同。The coil) Lml acts in parallel with the capacitor (capacitor, capacitor) Cml and the resonant circuit LC1. The main features of the parallel resonant circuit LC1 are, for example, generally described below. First, the first point is to increase the capacitance component between the signal input node N i η and the signal output node N out by wiring. Fig. 3(a) is a simplified equivalent circuit diagram of the parallel resonant circuit LC1 of Fig. 2, and Fig. 3(b) is a comparative example thereof, and is a spiral inductor shown in Fig. 8 of Patent Document 1. A simple equivalent circuit diagram of Lcl. In the parallel resonant circuit LC1 shown in FIG. 3(a), the signal input node Niii of the first interconnect layer LY1 is sequentially passed through the inductor L1 of the LY1, the inductor L3 of the third interconnect layer LY3, and the fourth wiring layer LY4. The inductance L4 and the inductance L2 of the second wiring layer LY2 are connected to the signal output node Nout. L1 to L4 are those corresponding to the wiring patterns MS21 to MS24 of Fig. 2, respectively. Further, between Niri and Nout, a capacitor C1 which is an interlayer capacitance between LY1 and LY2 is connected, and between LY2 and LY3, between LY3 and LY4, and between LY4 and the back surface are also connected, respectively. Capacitors C2, C3, and C4 that become interlayer capacitances. On the other hand, in the spiral inductor Lc 1 shown in FIG. 3(b), Nin of LY1 is sequentially passed through the inductance LI1 of LY1, the inductance L12 of LY2, the inductance L13 of LY3, and the inductance L14 of LY4. And is connected to Nout. Further, capacitors C 1 1 , C12, C13, and C14 which are interlayer capacitances are also connected between LY1 and LY2, between LY3 and LY4, and between LY4 and the back surface. In addition, in FIGS. 3(a) and 3(b), more closely, for example, the contact N1 of L3 and L4 of FIG. 3(a), etc., is inserted into the -39-200835042 with the via conductor. The inductor or the resistor is inserted in parallel with the capacitor of the interlayer capacitance of LY3 and LY4. However, the wiring is simply represented by the via-hole conductor, and accordingly, The capacitor is omitted. This matter is also the same for the existence of other via-hole conductors in Figs. 3(a) and (b).
由此等價電路可以得知,在圖3 ( a )中,其構成,係 藉由將Nin與Nout形成在相互鄰接之.層中,而有效率地 進行此些間之電容結合(亦即是對應於電容器C1),並 進而藉由將配線作引繞,而成爲使LY1〜LY4之所有的電 感成分作爲Nin與Nout間之電感成分而有所幫助。另一 方面,在圖3 (b)中,關於電感成分之有所幫助處,雖係 和圖3 ( a)爲相同,但是,由於Nin與Nout間之電容結 合,係經由複數之串聯連接的電容器(例如C 1 1與C 1 3 ) 而被進行,因此,Nin與Nout間之電容結合係變弱。故而 ,藉由使用如圖3 ( a ) —般之配線的引繞,相較於圖3 ( b )成爲能夠使Nin與Nout間之電容値增加,而成爲能夠 實現小型的又或是低成本的共振電路。 第2點,係在於:雖然MS21與MS22之線路寬幅係 幾乎爲相同,且MS23與MS24之線路寬幅係幾乎爲相同 ,但是MS21與MS22之最大線寬幅,係被形成爲較MS23 與MS24之最大線路寬幅爲更粗。藉由此’在能夠橫跨 MS21〜MS24而形成電感成分的同時,亦成爲能夠藉由以 相互挾持層而對向的方式所形成之MS21以及MS22’而 使Nin與Nout間之電容値更爲增大。 -40- 200835042It can be seen from the equivalent circuit that, in FIG. 3(a), the combination of Nin and Nout is formed in a layer adjacent to each other, and the capacitive coupling between the two is efficiently performed (ie, Corresponding to the capacitor C1), and by winding the wiring, all the inductance components of LY1 to LY4 are used as the inductance component between Nin and Nout. On the other hand, in Fig. 3 (b), the help of the inductance component is the same as that of Fig. 3 (a), but since the capacitance between Nin and Nout is combined, it is connected in series through a plurality of series. Capacitors (e.g., C 1 1 and C 1 3 ) are performed, and therefore, the capacitance bond between Nin and Nout becomes weak. Therefore, by using the wiring of the wiring as shown in FIG. 3(a), it is possible to increase the capacitance N between Nin and Nout as compared with FIG. 3(b), and it is possible to realize a small or low cost. Resonant circuit. The second point is that although the line widths of MS21 and MS22 are almost the same, and the line widths of MS23 and MS24 are almost the same, the maximum line width of MS21 and MS22 is formed to be compared with MS23. The MS24's maximum line width is thicker. Thus, the inductance component can be formed across MS21 to MS24, and the capacitance between Nin and Nout can be made even more so that MS21 and MS22' can be formed by opposing layers while holding each other. Increase. -40- 200835042
第3點,係在於:藉由將MS21與MS22設置在從 LY4之背面的接地電極而遠離之層(LY1、LY2 )處’相 較於形成在LY3或LY4等的情況,能夠實現大的電感値 。一般而言,由於被設置在接地面上之配線圖案的電感’ 係會由於藉由接地面所產生的影像電流之影響而變小,因 此,若是配線圖案能越遠離接地面,則能夠使電感變得越 大。故而,由於藉由此種構成,能夠使每單位面積之電感 値變爲最大化,因此,能夠將用以得到所期望之電感値的 必要之面積變爲最小,而能夠將共振電路小型化。另外, 由於依存於MS21〜MS24各部之電感値的平衡,亦有在將 MS23與MS24設置在從LY4之背面的接地電極遠離之層 (LY1、LY2),而將MS23與MS24所致之電感値最大化 的情況時,能夠更有效果地將共振電路之共振頻率降低、 或是不使共振頻率降低而能夠使面積小型化的情形,因此 ,在該情形,亦可將MS21〜MS 24所被設置之層的順序設 爲與圖2相反。 而,第4點,係在於:圖2之各配線圖案MS21〜 MS24,係以使從表面視之時的投影面積變小的方式而被 形成。換言之,在將MS21〜MS24之各別的配線圖案之佔 有區域從表面側而作投影的情況時,任一者的配線圖案所 對應之佔有區域,係成爲包含有其他之配線圖案的佔有區 域之關係。圖4,係爲展示將圖2之主要部透視性地觀察 的情況時之構成例的立體圖。 如圖4所示一般,MMS21〜MS24之實質佔有區域, -41 - 200835042The third point is that a large inductance can be realized by providing MS21 and MS22 at a layer (LY1, LY2) away from the ground electrode on the back surface of LY4 as compared with the case of forming LY3 or LY4 or the like. value. In general, since the inductance of the wiring pattern provided on the ground plane is reduced by the influence of the image current generated by the ground plane, if the wiring pattern can be moved away from the ground plane, the inductance can be made. It gets bigger. Therefore, with such a configuration, the inductance 每 per unit area can be maximized. Therefore, the necessary area for obtaining the desired inductance 变为 can be minimized, and the resonance circuit can be miniaturized. In addition, depending on the balance of the inductances of the MS21 to the MS24, there are also layers (LY1, LY2) in which the MS23 and the MS24 are disposed away from the ground electrode on the back side of the LY4, and the inductance caused by the MS23 and the MS24. In the case of maximization, the resonance frequency of the resonance circuit can be more effectively reduced, or the area can be miniaturized without lowering the resonance frequency. Therefore, in this case, the MS 21 to the MS 24 can be The order of the layers set is set to be opposite to that of FIG. 2. On the other hand, the fourth point is that the wiring patterns MS21 to MS24 of Fig. 2 are formed such that the projected area when viewed from the surface is reduced. In other words, when the occupied area of each of the wiring patterns of the MSs 21 to MS 24 is projected from the front side, the occupied area corresponding to any of the wiring patterns is an occupied area including another wiring pattern. relationship. Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing a configuration example in a case where the main portion of Fig. 2 is seen in a perspective view. As shown in Figure 4, the Ms21 to MS24 essentially occupy the area, -41 - 200835042
係分別成爲AA21〜AA24。而’當將此AA21〜AA24從表 面側投影而視之的情況時,例如係成爲在AA2 1內包含有 AA22〜AA24的關係。另外,於此,AA21〜AA24之佔有 區域係成爲相等的關係而成爲在AA2 1之全部中,包含有 AA22〜AA24之全部。佔有區域之大小(亦即是投影面積 )(A2 1XA22),雖並非爲被特別限定者,但是,例如係 爲1 mmx 1 mm左右。藉由此,例如,相較於如同專利文獻 3 (在圖7 ( b )處後述)中所示一般,將各配線圖案相錯 開而形成的情況,係能夠以小面積來實現並聯共振電路。 另外,於此,雖係展示如同前述一般之爲了減低多層 基板的成本而使用4層基板的構成例,但是,關於基板之 層數或是通孔導體所致之引繞方法,在不脫離該要旨的範 圍內,可作各種之變更。例如,亦可對圖2作變更,而以 第1配線層、第4配線層、第3配線層、第2配線層的順 序來將配線作引繞。又,例如,當使用3層基板的情況時 ,只要在第1配線層以及第2配線層中將MS 1等之類的 線路以粗的配線圖案來形成,並將此第3配線層之配線圖 案的其中一端連接於第i配線層,將另外一端連接於第2 配線層即可。 又,當使用5層基板的情況時,例如,只要在第1配 線層以及第2配線層中將MS 1等之類的線路以粗的配線 圖案來形成,並將在第3配線層〜第5配線層中而描繪螺 旋之MS3等的線路寬幅以細的配線圖案來形成,再將第3 配線層之線路圖案的其中一端連接於第1配線層,將第5 -42- 200835042 配線層之線路圖案的其中一端連接於第2配線層即可。進 而,若是在多層配線基板之成本上沒有問題,則對於6層 以上之多層配線基板,亦可同樣的適用。 以上,藉由本實施形態1,而成爲能夠實現共振電路 以及包含有其之高頻模組的小型化又或是低成本化。 (實施形態2 )The lines become AA21 to AA24, respectively. On the other hand, when the AA21 to AA24 are projected from the front side, for example, the relationship between AA22 and AA24 is included in AA2 1. Further, here, the occupied areas of AA21 to AA24 are in an equal relationship, and all of AA22 to AA24 are included in all of AA2. The size of the occupied area (that is, the projected area) (A2 1XA22) is not particularly limited, but is, for example, about 1 mm x 1 mm. By this, for example, in the case where the wiring patterns are formed to be shifted as shown in Patent Document 3 (described later in FIG. 7(b)), the parallel resonant circuit can be realized with a small area. In addition, although a configuration example in which a four-layer substrate is used in order to reduce the cost of the multilayer substrate as described above is used, the method of guiding the number of layers of the substrate or the via-hole conductor does not deviate from the configuration. Various changes can be made within the scope of the gist. For example, the wiring may be routed in the order of the first wiring layer, the fourth wiring layer, the third wiring layer, and the second wiring layer, as shown in Fig. 2 . In the case where a three-layer substrate is used, for example, a wiring such as MS 1 or the like is formed in a thick wiring pattern in the first wiring layer and the second wiring layer, and the wiring of the third wiring layer is formed. One end of the pattern is connected to the ith wiring layer, and the other end is connected to the second wiring layer. When a five-layer substrate is used, for example, a line such as MS 1 or the like is formed in a thick wiring pattern in the first wiring layer and the second wiring layer, and the third wiring layer is replaced by a third wiring layer. In the wiring layer, the line width of the MS3 such as the spiral is formed by a thin wiring pattern, and one end of the line pattern of the third wiring layer is connected to the first wiring layer, and the wiring layer of the fifth to 42-200835042 is connected. One end of the line pattern may be connected to the second wiring layer. Further, if there is no problem in the cost of the multilayer wiring board, the multilayer wiring board of six or more layers can be similarly applied. As described above, according to the first embodiment, it is possible to reduce the size and cost of the resonant circuit and the high-frequency module including the same. (Embodiment 2)

Fig. 5 is a perspective view showing a configuration of a resonance circuit according to a second embodiment of the present invention, wherein (a) is a perspective view, and (b) is a plan view showing each layer of (a). The resonance circuit shown in FIGS. 5(a) and 5(b) is realized by using, for example, a multilayer wiring board having four layers including the first to fourth wiring layers LY1 to LY4, as in the case of FIG. The back of LY4 is the grounding electrode. In LY1 and LY2, wiring patterns MS3 1 and MS32 formed by a shape in which the line is wound in a substantially loop shape by about one turn are formed, respectively. In LY3 and LY4, wiring patterns (electrode patterns) MS33 and MS34 each formed of a flat plate shape are formed. One end of the MS 31 is a signal input node Niii, and the signal input node Nin is further connected to the MS 33 via a via-hole conductor VH13b formed at the center of its own circuit. On the other hand, the other end of the MS 31 is connected to the MS 3 2 〇 -43- 200835042 via the via-hole conductor VH 12b formed in the corner portion of the loop of its own circuit.
MS32,係其中一端經由被形成在自身之迴路的角隅 部之通孔導體VH 12b而被連接於前述之MS3 1,而另外一 端,係在成爲訊號輸出節點Nout的同時,經由被形成在 自身之迴路的另外之角隅部的通孔導體VH24b而被連接 於MS 34。又’ MS3 3與MS 34,係以相互挾持層並對向的 方式而被形成。故而,當從Nin朝向Nout而傳送了訊號 的情況時,在MS31與MS32中,係成爲以逆時針之迴路 而傳送訊號,而MS3 1與MS32係成爲作爲電感而起作用 。又,除此之外,在Nin與Nout處,由於係經由 MS33 與MS 3 4而被形成有電容,因此,圖5之構成例,其全體 係作爲等價的由電感Lm2以及電容Cm2所成之並聯共振 電路LC2而起作用。另外,亦可將Nin與Nout設爲相反 圖6,係爲圖5之並聯共振電路LC2之簡易的等價電 路圖。在圖6中,LY1之Nin,係依序經由LY1之電感L5 φ 、L之電感L6,而連接於Nout。L5、L6,係爲分別對應 於圖5之配線圖案MS31、MS32者。又,在Nin與Nout 之間,係被連接有對應於圖5的LY3之MS33與LY4之 MS34的電容器C7,在LY1與LY2之間、LY2與LY3之 間、LY4與背面之間,亦分別被連接有成爲層間電容之電 容器C5、C6、C8。另外,與前述之圖3的等價電路同樣 的,關連於通孔導體之表示係被省略。 在此種構成中,本實施形態2之共振電路之主要的特 徵,例如係爲以下所述一般。首先,第1點,係在於:除 -44 - 200835042 了與實施形態1同樣的,將Nin與Nout形成在相互鄰接 之層中,並藉由此而使電容値(對應於圖6之C5)增大 之外,更經由MS33與MS34,而進一步使電容値(於圖6 中係對應於與C5並聯連接之C7)增大一事。又,第2點 和第3點,係如同在實施形態1中所說明一般,可列舉有 :將電感(MS31以及MS32)設置在從接地層而遠離之層 處一事,或是以使投影面積變小的方式來構成一事。The MS 32 is connected to the MS 3 1 via the via-hole conductor VH 12b formed in the corner portion of the loop of its own circuit, and the other end is formed at itself while being the signal output node Nout. The via hole conductor VH24b of the other corner of the loop is connected to the MS 34. Further, MS 3 3 and MS 34 are formed in such a manner as to hold each other and to face each other. Therefore, when a signal is transmitted from Nin toward Nout, in MS31 and MS32, signals are transmitted in a counterclockwise loop, and MS3 1 and MS32 function as inductances. In addition, in addition, in Nin and Nout, since capacitance is formed via MS33 and MS 3 4, the entire system of Fig. 5 is equivalently formed by inductance Lm2 and capacitance Cm2. The parallel resonant circuit LC2 functions. Alternatively, Nin and Nout may be reversed. Fig. 6 is a simplified equivalent circuit diagram of the parallel resonant circuit LC2 of Fig. 5. In FIG. 6, Nin of LY1 is connected to Nout via the inductance L5 φ of L1 and the inductance L6 of L. L5 and L6 are those corresponding to the wiring patterns MS31 and MS32 of Fig. 5, respectively. Further, between Nin and Nout, a capacitor C7 corresponding to MS33 of LY3 of FIG. 5 and MS34 of LY4 is connected, between LY1 and LY2, between LY2 and LY3, and between LY4 and the back, respectively. Capacitors C5, C6, and C8 which become interlayer capacitances are connected. Further, the same as the equivalent circuit of Fig. 3 described above, the description relating to the via conductor is omitted. In such a configuration, the main features of the resonant circuit of the second embodiment are as follows, for example. First, the first point is that, in addition to -44 - 200835042, in the same manner as in the first embodiment, Nin and Nout are formed in layers adjacent to each other, and thereby the capacitance 値 (corresponding to C5 of FIG. 6) In addition to the increase, the MS 与 and the MS 34 are further increased by the capacitance 値 (corresponding to C7 connected in parallel with C5 in FIG. 6). Further, the second point and the third point are as described in the first embodiment, and the inductance (MS31 and MS32) is set at a layer away from the ground layer, or the projected area is used. Smaller ways to make up.
關於此第3點之投影面積,使用圖7來作說明。圖7 (a ),係爲展示將圖5之主要部透視性地觀察的情況時 之構成例的立體圖,圖7(b),係爲展示成爲其之比較例 的構成之立體圖。成爲圖7(b)中所示之比較例的共振電 路LCc2,係成爲反映前述之專利文獻3的構成例者。如 圖7(a)所示一般,在圖5中之MS31〜MS34之實質佔 有區域,係分別成爲AA3 1〜AA34。而,當將此AA31〜 AA34從表面側投影而視之的情況時,例如係成爲在ΑΑ3ι 內包含有AA32〜AA34的關係。佔有區域之大小(亦即是 投影面積)(A31XA32 ),雖並非爲被特別限定者,但是 ,例如係爲1 Hi m X 1 m m左右。 另一方面,在比較例中,如圖7(b)所示一般,電感 圖案之實質的佔有區域係成爲AA41、AA42,電容圖案之 實質的佔有區域係成爲 AA43、AA44。故而,當將此 AA4 1〜AA44從表面側投影而視之的情況時,例如係成爲 在AA41內並不包含有AA43的關係。在此情況,雖然投 影面積會增大,但是,藉由使用圖7(a)(圖5) —般之 -45- 200835042 構成,成爲能夠實現並聯共振電路之小型化。The projected area of this third point will be described using FIG. 7. Fig. 7 (a) is a perspective view showing a configuration example in which the main portion of Fig. 5 is seen in a perspective view, and Fig. 7 (b) is a perspective view showing a configuration of a comparative example thereof. The resonance circuit LCc2 of the comparative example shown in Fig. 7(b) is a configuration example of the above-mentioned Patent Document 3. As shown in Fig. 7(a), in general, the substantial occupied areas of MS31 to MS34 in Fig. 5 are AA3 1 to AA34, respectively. On the other hand, when the AA31 to AA34 are projected from the front side, for example, the relationship of AA32 to AA34 is included in ΑΑ3ι. The size of the occupied area (that is, the projected area) (A31XA32) is not particularly limited, but is, for example, about 1 Hi m X 1 m m. On the other hand, in the comparative example, as shown in Fig. 7(b), the substantial occupied area of the inductance pattern is AA41 and AA42, and the substantial occupied area of the capacitance pattern is AA43 and AA44. Therefore, when the AA4 1 to AA44 are projected from the front side, for example, the relationship of AA43 is not included in AA41. In this case, although the projection area is increased, the parallel resonance circuit can be miniaturized by using the configuration of Fig. 7 (a) (Fig. 5) -45-200835042.
然而,作爲圖2之構成例與圖5之構成例的比較,若 是將此兩者分別以相同之面積與相同之層數來形成,則圖 5之構成例,相較於圖2之構成例,由於係成爲藉由 MS3 1與MS32之2層份來實現電感成分,因此電感値係 變小。又,電容値,亦由於係使MS33與MS34在以AA33 與A A3 4所致之狹小投影面積內被形成,故係變小。故而 ,圖5之構成例所致之共振頻率,相較於圖2之構成例所 致之共振頻率,由於係變大,因此,圖之構成例,例如係 可使用在圖1之對應於高帶域的濾波電路等中。 另外,於圖5之構成例中,亦與圖2之構成例同樣的 ,關於基板之層數或是通孔導體所致之引繞方法,在不脫 離該要旨的範圍內,可作各種之變更。例如,當使用5層 基板的情況時,例如,係以第1配線層-第3配線層—第 2配線層的方式來描繪螺旋而形成MS3 1等之類的配線圖 案,並在第4配線層與第5配線層中形成MS33等之平板 狀的配線圖案。而後,只要將第1配線層之線路圖案的其 中一端連接於第4配線層,並將第2配線層之線路圖案的 其中一端連接於第5配線層即可。在圖5之構成例的情況 中,不論基板之層數係爲何種狀況,藉由將形成電感之配 線圖案相較於形成電容之平板狀的配線圖案而設置於從接 地電極更爲遠離之層中,能夠將每單位面積之電感値最大 化,並能夠將用以得到所期望之電感値所必要的面積最小 化,而能夠將共振電路小型化。 -46- 200835042 以上,藉由本實施形態2’而成爲能夠實現共振電路 以及包含有其之局頻模組的小型化又或是低成本化。 (實施形態3 )However, as a comparison between the configuration example of FIG. 2 and the configuration example of FIG. 5, if the two are formed by the same area and the same number of layers, the configuration example of FIG. 5 is compared with the configuration example of FIG. Since the inductance component is realized by two layers of MS3 1 and MS 32, the inductance 値 is small. Further, the capacitance 値 is also reduced because the MS 33 and the MS 34 are formed in a narrow projected area caused by AA33 and A A3 4 . Therefore, the resonance frequency due to the configuration example of FIG. 5 is larger than the resonance frequency due to the configuration example of FIG. 2, and therefore, the configuration example of the figure can be used, for example, in FIG. A filter circuit with a domain, etc. In addition, in the configuration example of FIG. 5, similarly to the configuration example of FIG. 2, the number of layers of the substrate or the winding method by the via-hole conductor can be variously selected without departing from the gist of the gist. change. For example, when a five-layer substrate is used, for example, a spiral pattern is formed so that the first wiring layer, the third wiring layer, and the second wiring layer are formed, and a wiring pattern such as MS3 1 or the like is formed, and the fourth wiring is formed. A flat wiring pattern of MS 33 or the like is formed in the layer and the fifth wiring layer. Then, one end of the line pattern of the first wiring layer is connected to the fourth wiring layer, and one end of the line pattern of the second wiring layer is connected to the fifth wiring layer. In the case of the configuration example of FIG. 5, the wiring pattern forming the inductance is provided on the layer farther from the ground electrode than the planar wiring pattern forming the capacitance regardless of the number of layers of the substrate. In this case, the inductance 値 per unit area can be maximized, and the area necessary for obtaining the desired inductance 値 can be minimized, and the resonance circuit can be miniaturized. In the second embodiment, the resonance circuit and the local frequency module including the same can be realized in a small size or at a reduced cost. (Embodiment 3)

By -50- 200835042 As a result, the signal of about 5.4 GHz, which is the third-order high-frequency wave (3 HD) of the high-band signal, is degraded. This ANT_FIL mainly performs the attenuation of 3HD due to the high band signal generated by the SW, and the attenuation of the 3HD for the high band signal received from the antenna.

Csl5, for example, is made of SMD components and has a capacitance of 13pF. Lil4 is formed by the built-in circuit of the wiring board and has an inductance of 12nH. ESD-FIL is mainly for the received signal from the antenna, and will be the problem of the 4D 0MHz signal that will become a problem in the ESD countermeasures. The antenna terminal P3 of the ANT-SW is connected to the external output terminal RX-LB via the DC cut-off capacitor Cs17 and the signal filter circuit RX-FIL1 in sequence. Csl7 (here, 7.4 pF) is formed, for example, by SMD members. RX__FIL1 is connected between one end of Csl7 and RX-LB, and has a parallel resonant circuit formed by inductor Lil5 and capacitor Ci2. Here, in this parallel resonance circuit, the parallel resonance circuit LC1 of Fig. 2 shown in Embodiment 1 is used. The parallel resonant circuit is realized with a circuit area of 1 mm x 1 mm, and the inductance L of Lil 5 is, for example, 5.6 nH, and the capacitance C of Ci2 is, for example, 〇.6 pF. As a result, the signal of about 2.7 GHz, which is the third-order high-frequency wave (3HD) of the low-band signal, is degraded. That is, the RX-FIL 1 is for the low-band signal received from the antenna, and the 3HD is reduced. Antenna terminal P4 of ANT_ SW is sequentially transmitted via the signal filtering circuit -51 - 200835042
RX_ FIL2與直流截除用之電容器Csl9,而被連接於外部 輸出端子RX_HB。Csl9 (在此係爲8pF ),例如係經由 SMD構件而被形成。RX— FIL2,係具備有從P4起朝向 GND而依序串聯連接之電容器Csl8與電感Lil6。Csl8, 例如係由SMD構件所成,並具備有10pF之電容値。Li 16 ,係經由配線基板之內藏電路所成,並具備有9nH之電感 値。RX— FIL2,於此由於係經由ANT— FIL而將高帶域訊 號之3HD減衰,因此,相異於RX—FIL1,而具備有ESD 對策用之濾波電路。此:RX— FIL2,係使在ESD對策上成 爲問題之400MHz左右的訊號減衰。 如上述一般,在圖8之高頻模組中,作爲用以對低帶 域訊號以及高帶域訊號而減衰3次高頻波(3 HD ),而使 用有如同圖2以及圖5所示一般,並不使用SMD構件且 能夠以小面積而實現的並聯共振電路LC1、LC2。藉由此 ,成爲能夠實現高頻模組之小型化又或是低成本化。另外 ,於此,對應於高帶域訊號,係使用圖5之構造,對應於 低帶域訊號,係使用可實現較圖5之構造而更低之共振頻 率的圖2之構造,但是,只要能夠實現所需要之電路定數 ,則並不特別限定於此組合。RX_FIL2 and DC cut-off capacitor Csl9 are connected to external output terminal RX_HB. Csl9 (here 8pF) is formed, for example, via SMD members. RX-FIL2 is provided with a capacitor Cs18 and an inductor Lil6 which are connected in series from P4 to GND in series. Csl8, for example, is made of SMD components and has a capacitance of 10 pF. Li 16 is formed by a built-in circuit of a wiring board and has an inductance of 9 nH. RX-FIL2, because the 3HD of the high-band signal is degraded by ANT-FIL, is different from RX-FIL1 and has a filter circuit for ESD countermeasures. This: RX-FIL2 is a signal that degrades around 400MHz, which is a problem in ESD countermeasures. As described above, in the high-frequency module of FIG. 8, as the low-band signal and the high-band signal, the high-frequency wave (3 HD) is reduced by 3 times, and the use is as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. Parallel resonant circuits LC1, LC2 that can be implemented with a small area using SMD components. As a result, it is possible to achieve miniaturization or low cost of the high frequency module. In addition, here, corresponding to the high band signal, the configuration of FIG. 5 is used, corresponding to the low band signal, and the configuration of FIG. 2 that can achieve a lower resonance frequency than the configuration of FIG. 5 is used, but The combination of the required circuit constants is not particularly limited to this combination.
又,於此,雖係將圖2以及圖5之並聯共振電路L C1 、LC2,作爲3次高頻波(3HD )之減衰用而使用,但是 ’不用說’亦可作爲2次局頻波(2HD)之減衰用,或是 除此之外的n(n^4)次高頻波之減衰用而使用。亦即是 ,例如,圖8之電路例,係亦可適用在LPF—LB或是LPF -52- 200835042 _ HB等之中。在本實施形態中,僅將其適用在3次高頻 波(3 HD)之減衰用中的原因,是因爲3 HD減衰用之濾波 電路,相對於配線基板之製造誤差所伴隨之特性變動,係 具備有充分的餘裕(margin )之故。亦即是,實際上,當 產生有配線基板之製造誤差的情況時,雖然亦有經由SMD 構件之參數來對其影響作修正的情況,但是其必要性係爲 低之故。,In addition, although the parallel resonant circuits L C1 and LC2 of FIGS. 2 and 5 are used as the attenuation of the third-order high-frequency wave (3HD), the 'not necessary' can also be used as the secondary frequency wave (2HD). It is used for the fading of the fading, or for the reduction of the n (n^4) times of the high frequency wave. That is, for example, the circuit example of FIG. 8 can also be applied to LPF-LB or LPF-52-200835042 _ HB. In the present embodiment, the reason why it is applied to the attenuation of the third-order high-frequency wave (3 HD) is that the filter circuit for the 3 HD attenuation is provided with respect to the characteristic variation accompanying the manufacturing error of the wiring board. There is ample margin. That is, in actuality, when a manufacturing error of the wiring board occurs, there is a case where the influence is corrected by the parameters of the SMD member, but the necessity is low. ,
又,該當’於圖8中之電感Li 15以及電容器Ci2的圖2 之並聯共振電路LC1,係可如前述一般以圖3(a)之等價 電路來表示。在對此時之各電路元件的參數値作算出後, LI、L2、L3、L4,作爲槪算値,係分別具備有0.8nH、 0·8ηΗ、2·0ηΗ、2.0nH 左右。又,Cl、C2、C3、C4,作爲 槪算値,係分別具備有〇.4pF、O.lpF、O.lpF、O.lpF左右 。如同由此可得知一般,藉由圖2之MS21與MS22,係 可實現充分之電感成分(LI、L2)和充分的電容成分(C1 )° 另一方面,相當於圖8中之電感Li 13以及電容器Cil 的圖5之並聯共振電路LC2,係可如前述一般以圖6之等 價電路來表示。在對此時之各電路元件的參數値作算出後 ,L5、L6,作爲槪算値,係分別具備有1.7nH、1.7nH左 右。又,C5、C6、C7、C8,作爲槪算値,係分別具備有 0.05pF、0.05pF、0.15pF、〇.15pF 左右 〇 如此這般,圖5之並聯共振電路LC2,若是相較於圖 2之並聯共振電路LC 1,則雖然電感値以及電容値係變小 -53- 200835042 ,但是係能夠實現用以使高頻波減衰之充分的定數。又, 如同由前述之等價電路而可得知一般,圖5之LC2,相較 於圖之LC1,由於其之成爲構成要素的參數(電路元件) 之數量係爲較少’因此可以想見,其之對於前述配線基板 等的製造誤差所造成的影響係爲較少。 以上,藉由本實施形態3,而成爲能夠實現共振電路 以及包含有其之高頻模組的小型化又或是低成本化。Further, the parallel resonant circuit LC1 of Fig. 2, which is the inductor Li 15 and the capacitor Ci2 in Fig. 8, can be generally represented by the equivalent circuit of Fig. 3(a) as described above. After calculating the parameters of the circuit elements at this time, LI, L2, L3, and L4 are approximately 0.8nH, 0·8ηΗ, 2·0ηΗ, and 2.0nH, respectively. Further, Cl, C2, C3, and C4 are 槪.4pF, O.lpF, O.lpF, and O.lpF, respectively. As can be seen from the above, the MS21 and MS22 of Fig. 2 can realize sufficient inductance components (LI, L2) and sufficient capacitance components (C1). On the other hand, it is equivalent to the inductance Li in Fig. 8. 13 and the parallel resonant circuit LC2 of FIG. 5 of the capacitor Cil can be generally represented by the equivalent circuit of FIG. 6 as described above. After calculating the parameters of the circuit elements at this time, L5 and L6 are 1.7nH and 1.7nH, respectively. Further, C5, C6, C7, and C8 are provided as 槪 値, which are respectively 0.05pF, 0.05pF, 0.15pF, and 〇.15pF, and the parallel resonant circuit LC2 of Fig. 5 is compared with the figure. In the parallel resonant circuit LC1 of 2, although the inductance 値 and the capacitance 变 are reduced to -53-200835042, a sufficient constant for reducing the high-frequency wave can be realized. Further, as can be seen from the above-described equivalent circuit, LC2 of FIG. 5 is smaller than the number of parameters (circuit elements) which become constituent elements compared to LC1 of the figure. The influence on the manufacturing error of the wiring board or the like is small. As described above, according to the third embodiment, it is possible to reduce the size and cost of the resonant circuit and the high-frequency module including the same.
(實施形態4) 在本實施形態4中,係揭示對在將圖1之高頻模組小 型化時有可能會產生之回路(return path )的問題作解決 之方式。首先,針對回路之問題,使用圖9來作說明。圖 9,係爲在作爲本發明之前提而被檢討之高頻模組中,展 示其功率放大電路周圍之構成例的電路圖。 於圖9所示之高頻模組RF—MDLcl,係爲從在實施 形態3所示之圖8的電路例中,將高帶域訊號用之功率放 大電路P A_ HB與其輸出整合電路MN_ HB的部分作抽出 後所得者。以後,對關於與圖8重複之部分的說明,係省 略之。圖9之高頻模組MF—MDLcl,作爲其配線基板之 構造,通常,係在被形成有PA_HB之半導體晶片的正下 之各配線層(LY2〜LY4 )中形成接地電極圖案,並將此 各接地電極或背面之接地電極,分別以通孔導體來連接, 藉由此而形成最爲安定之接地電壓GND的區域。此區域 ,一般係被稱爲熱通孔TV之形成區域。 -54- 200835042(Embodiment 4) In the fourth embodiment, a method for solving a problem of a return path which may occur when the high-frequency module of Fig. 1 is downsized is disclosed. First, for the problem of the loop, use FIG. 9 for explanation. Fig. 9 is a circuit diagram showing a configuration example of the periphery of the power amplifying circuit in the high frequency module which has been reviewed before the present invention. The high frequency module RF-MDLcl shown in FIG. 9 is a portion of the power amplifying circuit P A_ HB for the high band signal and its output integrating circuit MN_ HB from the circuit example of FIG. 8 shown in the third embodiment. The person who obtained after the withdrawal. In the following, the explanation about the portion overlapping with Fig. 8 will be omitted. The high frequency module MF-MDLcl of FIG. 9 has a ground electrode pattern formed in each of the wiring layers (LY2 to LY4) directly under the semiconductor wafer in which the PA_HB is formed, and is grounded as a wiring substrate. The electrodes or the ground electrodes on the back side are respectively connected by via conductors, thereby forming a region of the most stable ground voltage GND. This area is generally referred to as a formation area of the thermal via TV. -54- 200835042
另一方面,例如,在被連接有PA— HB之輸出的輸出 整合電路MN—HBcl中,PA—HB之輸出電力,係經由電 容器Cs4〜Cs7 (特別是Cs4 )與電感Li4〜Li7 (特別是 Li4) ’而流入LY3之接地電極圖案中。另外,此接地電 極圖案係在LY3而被連接於熱通孔TV之形成區域,並進 而經由通孔導體而亦被連接於背面之接地電極。又,C s4 〜Cs7,例如係在第1配線層中作爲SMD構件而被安裝, Li4〜Li7,係該當於用以將此LY1與LY3作連接之通孔 導體。 然而,在圖8之電路例中雖並未圖示,但是在被包含 於PA— HB中且分別被作從屬連接之3段的功率電晶體之 各輸出節點處,例如係被連接有如圖9所示一般之偏壓電 路BC。在BC中,——般而言,係在將偏壓電壓Vcc經由被 稱爲抗流線圈(choke coil )等之高頻波遮斷用的電感而 供給至功率電晶體之各輸出(亦即是對下一段之輸出)的 φ 同時,在此Vcc與接地電壓GND之間,被設置有被稱爲 解耦合電容器等之高頻波性的接地用之電容器。於圖9中 ,此抗流線圈,係該當於傳送線路LN6 1〜LN65或是電感 Ls2,而解耦合電容器,係該當於電容器Cdl〜cd3。 於此,Cdl〜Cd3,例如係在LY1中作爲SMD構件而 被安裝,其一端係被連接於Vce,另外一端係經由被連接 在LY1和LY32之間的通孔導體(電感)VH1〜VH3而被 連接於LY3之接地電極圖案。故而,如圖9之箭頭所示一 般,PA一 HB之輸出電流,係被形成有:經由電容性結合 -55- 200835042 (Cs4〜Cs7 (特別是Cs4))而流入LY3之接地電極圖案 ,進而,從此接地電極圖案,經由電容性結合(Cdl〜Cd3 )而回歸至功率電晶體之輸入的路徑。此路徑,係被稱爲 回路(return pat h)RP。On the other hand, for example, in the output integration circuit MN-HBcl to which the output of the PA-HB is connected, the output power of the PA-HB is via the capacitors Cs4 to Cs7 (especially Cs4) and the inductances Li4 to Li7 (especially Li4) 'and flow into the ground electrode pattern of LY3. Further, the ground electrode pattern is connected to the formation region of the thermal via TV in LY3, and is also connected to the ground electrode on the back side via the via conductor. Further, C s4 to Cs7 are mounted as SMD members in the first wiring layer, for example, Li4 to Li7 are via-hole conductors for connecting the LY1 and LY3. However, although not shown in the circuit example of FIG. 8, at the output nodes of the power transistors included in the PA-HB and respectively connected as the slave segments, for example, as shown in FIG. A typical bias circuit BC is shown. In BC, in general, the bias voltage Vcc is supplied to the respective outputs of the power transistor via an inductance called high-frequency wave blocking such as a choke coil (that is, φ of the output of the next stage) At the same time, between this Vcc and the ground voltage GND, a capacitor for grounding called a decoupling capacitor or the like is provided. In Fig. 9, the choke coil is disposed on the transmission lines LN6 1 to LN65 or the inductor Ls2, and the decoupling capacitors are applied to the capacitors Cd1 to cd3. Here, Cdl to Cd3 are, for example, mounted as SMD members in LY1, one end of which is connected to Vce, and the other end of which is connected via via-hole conductors (inductors) VH1 to VH3 connected between LY1 and LY32. Connected to the ground electrode pattern of LY3. Therefore, as shown by the arrow in FIG. 9, the output current of the PA-HB is formed by a capacitive connection of -55-200835042 (Cs4~Cs7 (especially Cs4)) into the ground electrode pattern of LY3, and further From then on, the ground electrode pattern is returned to the path of the input of the power transistor via capacitive coupling (Cdl~Cd3). This path is called a return pat h RP.
另外’在圖9之電路例中,雖係展不有經由偏壓電路 BC之回路RP,但是,除此之外,雖並未圖示,但亦存在 著經由在功率電晶體之各段間所被插入的整合電路而形成 的回路。亦即是,例如,亦會有:將第1段之功率電晶體 的輸出暫時藉由焊接導線而拉出至配線基板上,並在配線 基板上進行阻抗整合,之後,再度經由焊接導線而回到第 2段之功率電晶體的輸入處一般之情況,在此種狀況下, 配線基板上之整合電路亦有可能會成爲回路。回路,係會 引起如前述一般之震盪現象,而成爲錯誤動作等之原因。 但是,在圖9中,例如,若是能夠在輸出整合電路MN_ HBxl與偏壓電路BC等之間保持充分的距離,貝IJ能夠減少 此種問題。然而,相反的,小型化係變爲困難。 於此,爲了在追求小型化的同時,亦解決回路之問題 ,例如,係可使用圖10 —般之構成。圖10,係爲在本發 明之實施形態4所致的高頻模組中,展示其功率放大電路 周邊的構成例之電路圖。於圖1 〇中所示之高頻模組RF_ MDLa,相較於圖9之構成例,其特徵係成爲:除了在 LY2處將電感(通孔導體)Li4、Li5與熱通孔TV之形成 區域作連接的配線圖案MS 72之外,更進而加上有將此 MS72與LY3之接地電極作連接的複數之通孔導體(電感 -56- 200835042 )VHm。另外,在MS 72中,係使用有線狀之配線圖案。In addition, in the circuit example of FIG. 9, although the circuit RP via the bias circuit BC is not shown, it is not shown, but it is also present in each section of the power transistor. A loop formed by the integrated circuit that is inserted. That is, for example, the output of the power transistor of the first stage is temporarily pulled out to the wiring substrate by soldering wires, and impedance integration is performed on the wiring substrate, and then returned again via the soldering wire. In the general case of the input of the power transistor of the second stage, in this case, the integrated circuit on the wiring substrate may also become a loop. The circuit causes a general oscillation as described above, and causes a malfunction or the like. However, in Fig. 9, for example, if a sufficient distance can be maintained between the output integration circuit MN_HBTx and the bias circuit BC or the like, the problem can be reduced. However, on the contrary, miniaturization becomes difficult. Here, in order to achieve miniaturization and solve the problem of the circuit, for example, it can be configured as shown in FIG. Fig. 10 is a circuit diagram showing a configuration example of the periphery of the power amplifying circuit in the high frequency module according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. The high-frequency module RF_MDLa shown in FIG. 1 is characterized in comparison with the configuration example of FIG. 9 in that the formation regions of the inductors (via-hole conductors) Li4, Li5 and the thermal vias are made at LY2. In addition to the connected wiring pattern MS 72, a plurality of via-hole conductors (inductors - 56 - 200835042 ) VHm connecting the ground electrodes of the MS 72 and the LY 3 are further added. Further, in the MS 72, a wired wiring pattern is used.
若藉由此種構成,則以對應於TV之形成區域的GND 作爲基準,由於通孔導體Li4、Li 5與MS 72間之接點電位 VA,係成爲較Li4、Li5與LY3之接地電極圖案間的接點 電位VB爲更高,因此在LY2中,係成爲在從MS 72朝向 TV之方向上流動有較多的電流。此時,由於偏壓電路BC 係被連接於LY3之接地電極圖案,因此,並不會直接地流 入在此LY2中所流動之電流。又,經由通孔導體Li4、 Li5,在LY3之接地電極圖案中亦會流動有若千之電流, 但是,此電流,亦由於LY3之接地電極圖案係經由複數之 VHm而被與MS 72作連接,因此係成爲易於流向TV之形 成區域的方向。因此,在被連接於LY3之接地電極圖案的 偏壓電路BC側,電流係幾乎不會流入,而成爲能夠解決 回路之問題。進而,藉由將MS 72與LY3之接地電極以複 數之VHm來連接,亦成爲能夠減低MS72之電感成分的 影響,而可防止在輸出整合電路之特性中產生有誤差之類 的事態。 圖1 1,係爲在本發明之實施形態4所致的高頻模組中 ,展示其功率放大電路周邊之配線基板的構成例者‘,(a )係作爲比較對象,而爲對應於圖9之構成的佈線圖,( b)係爲對應於圖10之構成的配線圖。圖12,係爲在本發 明之實施形態4所致的高頻模組中,展示對應於圖1 〇之 構成的配線基板之構成例者,(a )係爲將配線基板全體 作透視時的立體圖,(b )係爲將其之功率放大電路周邊 -57- 200835042According to this configuration, the contact potential VA between the via hole conductors Li4, Li5 and the MS 72 is made to be a ground electrode pattern of Li4, Li5, and LY3 with reference to the GND corresponding to the formation region of the TV. Since the contact potential VB is higher, in LY2, a large amount of current flows in the direction from the MS 72 toward the TV. At this time, since the bias circuit BC is connected to the ground electrode pattern of LY3, it does not directly flow into the current flowing in this LY2. Further, thousands of currents flow through the via-hole conductors Li4 and Li5 in the ground electrode pattern of LY3. However, this current is also connected to the MS 72 via the complex VHm through the ground electrode pattern of the LY3. Therefore, it is a direction that is easy to flow to the formation area of the TV. Therefore, in the bias circuit BC side connected to the ground electrode pattern of LY3, the current system hardly flows in, and the problem of the circuit can be solved. Further, by connecting the ground electrodes of the MS 72 and the LY3 with a plurality of VHm, it is possible to reduce the influence of the inductance component of the MS 72, and it is possible to prevent a situation in which an error occurs in the characteristics of the output integrated circuit.

In the comparative example of FIG. 9 , as shown in FIG. 11 ( a ), at L Y2 , the wiring pattern of the formation region of the thermal via TV is not connected to MN, and at the ground electrode pattern, The GND of the MN via the via conductor and the GND of the BC connected via the via conductor are respectively connected, and in the configuration of FIG. 10 (this embodiment), as shown in FIGS. 11 and 12 (a) As shown in (c), at LY2, the wiring pattern MS 72 MS72 which is connected to the formation region of the thermal via TV by MN is connected to the ground electrode pattern via the plurality of via-hole conductors VHm. .

In addition, in FIG. 14 to FIG. 16, when power is output from the power amplifier circuit PA of the third stage, the return current and the input current to the power transistor (Tr) of the first stage (Ist) are The regression current of the input to the Tr of the second stage (2nd) and the return current of the input of the :: of the third stage (3^) are respectively analyzed. First, in the analysis result of LY1 shown in FIG. 14, on the left side, the result of the high frequency module RF_MDLcl of FIG. 9 which is a comparative example is shown, and on the right side, the high frequency module which becomes the figure 10 of this embodiment is shown.

Next, in the analysis result of LY2 shown in Fig. 15, in the high-frequency module RF_MDLa of Fig. 10, it can be seen that a large amount of current flows in the formation region of the TV via the wiring pattern MS 72 described above. Further, in the high frequency module RF_MDLcl of Fig. 9, since such a wiring pattern is not provided, there is no such a result in Fig. 15.

圖17,係爲用以針對圖10之構成例的合適之適用例 而作說明的槪略圖,(a) 、(b)係爲分別展示相異之構 成例者。例如,如同在圖17 ( b )之高頻模組RF_ MDLc2 中所示一般,對於構成功率放大電路之3段構成的功率電 晶體(Tr ),有在第3段(最終段)而以其他之半導體晶 片來作形成並安裝的情況。亦即是,將對應於低帶域以及 高帶域之第1·斷語第2段的Tr,藉由1個的半導體晶片 PC—CPcl來形成,並將對應於低帶域之第3段的Tp藉 由另外之半導體晶片PC 一 CPc2來形成,再將對應於高帶 域之第3段的Tr,更進而藉由其他之半導體晶片PA_ CPc3來形成的情況。 在此情況下,此3個的半導體晶片pA_CPel〜PA_ CPc3,係分別被安裝在RF— MDLc2上。如此一來,由於 從第3段之Tr的輸出起直到第1段又或是第2段的Tr之 輸入爲止的距離係變大,因此係成爲可容易的避免如前述 一般之回路的問題。然而,在此種構成中,會有:高頻模 組RF— MDLc2被大型化,且成本亦增大等之弊害。 於此’爲了追求小型化又或是低成本化,係以如同圖 -60- 200835042 17 ( a)之高頻模組RF—MDL —般,將3段的Tr藉由1 個的半導體晶片PA一 CP來形成爲理想。但是’如此一來 ,由於從第3段之Tr的輸出起直到第1段又或是第2段 的Tr之輸入爲止的距離係變短,因此回路的問題係成爲 更顯著。在此種情況,若是使用圖1 〇之構成例,則能夠 解決回路之問題,並成爲能夠實現高頻模組之小型化又或 是低成本化。Fig. 17 is a schematic diagram for explaining a suitable example of the configuration of Fig. 10, and (a) and (b) are diagrams showing different configurations. For example, as shown in the high frequency module RF_MDLc2 of FIG. 17(b), the power transistor (Tr) constituting the three stages of the power amplifying circuit has the third stage (final stage) and other semiconductors. The wafer is formed and installed. In other words, Tr corresponding to the second segment of the first band and the second segment of the low band and the high band is formed by one semiconductor wafer PC_CPcl, and corresponds to the third segment of the low band. The Tp is formed by another semiconductor wafer PC-CPc2, and the Tr corresponding to the third segment of the high band is further formed by the other semiconductor wafer PA_CPc3. In this case, the three semiconductor wafers pA_CPel to PA_CPc3 are respectively mounted on the RF-MDLc2. As a result, since the distance from the output of the third segment Tr to the input of the first segment or the second segment Tr becomes large, the problem of the above-described general circuit can be easily avoided. However, in such a configuration, there is a disadvantage that the high frequency module RF-MDLc2 is enlarged and the cost is increased. In order to pursue miniaturization or low cost, a three-segment Tr is used for a semiconductor wafer PA-CP as in the high-frequency module RF-MDL of Fig. 60-200835042 17 (a). To form an ideal. However, in this case, since the distance from the output of the third segment Tr to the input of the first segment or the second segment Tr is shortened, the problem of the circuit becomes more conspicuous. In this case, if the configuration example of Fig. 1 is used, the problem of the circuit can be solved, and the high-frequency module can be reduced in size or cost.
