Abstract

The invention relates to an SOI (Silicon On Insulator) CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) RF (Radio Frequency) switch and an RF transmitter front-end module comprising the same. The SOI CMOS RF switch comprises a plurality of DC-blocking capacitors, a plurality of resistors and a plurality of switching tubes, wherein the switching tubes are SOI CMOS switching tubes, the drain electrode of each switching tube is connected to a channel control voltage through a resistor, the source electrode of each switching tube is connected to the channel control voltage through another resistor and connected with an antenna, and the channel control voltage is larger than 0 V and smaller than the difference of a high level and a threshold voltage of the switching tube. At the same moment, only one switching tube has a control signal at a high-level voltage, and the other switching tubes have control signals at the voltage of 0 V. The technical scheme provided by the invention simplifies the structure of the RF switch; and the RF switch can work under a signal power supply to ensure that the control signal voltage in a switching transistor in each SOI CMOS RF switch can be higher than the safe voltage of the transistor, thus the reliability of the RF switch is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the radio frequency field, in particular to an SOI CMOS radio frequency switch and a radio frequency transmitting front-end module including the radio frequency switch. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of modern wireless communication technology, there has been a situation where multiple communication standards coexist, such as GSM, WCDMA, CDMA, TD-SCDMA and so on. In order to make the same wireless communication mobile phone terminal available all over the world, it is required that the mobile phone terminal must support these different communication standards at the same time. Therefore, multiple radio frequency power amplifiers supporting different communication standards are required in the mobile terminal, and a radio frequency switch is used to switch the required radio frequency power amplifiers to the transmission channel. At the same time, radio frequency switches can also be used to switc...
