[0028] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in greater detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it is understood that the present disclosure can be embodied in various forms without being limited by the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present disclosure can be thoroughly understood, and the scope of the present disclosure can be accurately conveyed to those skilled in the art.
[0029] The terms "include" and "have" and any variations thereof in the specification, claims and drawings of the present application are intended to cover the non-exclusive inclusion, for example, the inclusion of a series of steps or units.
[0030] The technical solutions of the present application will be described in further detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments.
[0031] The present application takes the four-layer thick copper TGV (Through-Glass Vias) process of penetrating the glass substrate as an example. The integrated passive device IPD process can be divided into high-resistance silicon / gallium arsenide and glass processes according to different substrates, and the present application is not limited to any of these processes.
[0032] As shown in Figure 1 , according to the packaging form, it can be divided into wire bonding WB (Wire bonding), flip chip FC (Flip chip) and the surface mount device SMD shown in the present patent, and it is also not limited to any of these packaging forms.
[0033] The bottom thick copper and TGV are not necessary processes of the present application, and are only used for signal lead-out function. The core is the four-layer thick copper, and the WB / FC packaging does not need TGV and bottom thick copper, and the process schematic diagram is shown in Figure 2 .
[0034] As shown in Figure 3 , it is the bottom thick copper layer and the TGV hole layer, and the pad adopts SMD packaging, which is used for signal line lead-out function.
[0035] As shown in Figure 4 , it is the thick copper 1 and the via hole from the thick copper 1 to the thick copper 2.
[0036] As shown in Figure 5 , it is the thick copper 2 and the via hole from the thick copper 2 to the thick copper 3, and the present application adds a capacitor plate for adjusting return loss.
[0037] As Figure 6 The thick copper 3 and the via hole from the thick copper 3 to the thick copper 4, the capacitor plate for adjusting the return loss is added in the application.
[0038] As Figure 7 The thick copper 4, the capacitor plate for adjusting the return loss is added in the application.
[0039] As Figure 8 The schematic diagram of the above example is shown, the thick copper 1 and the thick copper 4 signal lines are connected through the via hole between the layers, achieving the effect of parallel common walk, in the example, the walk line layer used for signal a.
[0040] The thick copper 2 and the thick copper 3 signal lines are single-layer walk lines, respectively, the walk line layer used for signal b and signal c. The structure is approximately symmetrical between signal b and a and signal c and a, and the coupling strength is improved.
[0041] The symmetrical structure can increase the isolation degree between the differential mode and the common mode signal, and the parallel walk line can also reduce the walk DC resistance of the signal line a.
[0042] In the example, the capacitor plate for adjusting the return loss is added between the first signal b and signal c, and the occupied layer is the thick copper 2 / 3 / 4 layer. In the application, according to the actual layout and process, the corresponding size of the capacitor can be reasonably added between the three signal lines for performance adjustment, or the capacitor can be removed, depending on the situation.
[0043] As Figure 9 The simulation S parameter performance diagram of the above example is shown:
[0044] Performance advantage: under the feasible process parameters, the chip size is 850umx650um (including cutting channel) and SMD surface mounting is performed. The SDD21 differential mode-3dB cutoff frequency is more than 10GHz; the SCC21 common mode suppression bandwidth can be about 2 to 5GHz; the isolation degree between the differential mode and the common mode of the SCD21 is less than-30dB within 6GHz; the reflection of all signal ports within-15dB can be close to 6GHz.
[0045] Beneficial effect: a high-performance small-size three-wire common mode filter is realized, achieving the effects of high performance and miniaturization.
[0046] The above specific embodiments further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the application. It should be understood that the above is only a specific embodiment of the application and is not used to limit the protection scope of the application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the application shall be included in the protection scope of the application.
