[0041] Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following examples and features in the examples can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0042] As described in the background, in the prior art, radio frequency power devices generally use external matching circuits to achieve impedance matching, resulting in a large overall circuit size.

[0043] Therefore, the present application provides a radio frequency power device, which reduces the overall size of the device by internal matching and utilizing the substrate parasitic capacitance to participate in matching.

[0044] The radio frequency power device provided by the present application will be described exemplarily as follows:

[0045] As an optional implementation, please refer to Figure 1The radio frequency power device 100 comprises a substrate 170, an input balun 110, a first transistor 120, a supplementary capacitor 140 and an output inductor 150 located on the substrate 170, a second transistor 130 located outside the substrate 170, the input balun 110 is electrically connected to control ends of the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 respectively, and the input balun 110 is used for receiving an enable signal, one end of the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 in series is connected to a power supply and the supplementary capacitor 140 respectively, and the other end is grounded, and the connection points of the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 are also electrically connected to the input balun 110, the supplementary capacitor 140 and the output inductor 150 respectively, and the output inductor 150 is used for connecting a load; wherein the output inductor 150, the supplementary capacitor 140, the parasitic capacitances of the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 and the parasitic capacitance of the substrate 170 are used together to realize impedance matching.

[0046] wherein, Figure 1 The equivalent circuit of the circuit structure of the radio frequency power device 100 is shown in Figure 2 Wherein, the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 are both realized by MOS tubes, of course, in other embodiments, other transistors such as IGBT tubes can also be used, which are not limited here.

[0047] From the circuit architecture, if the circuit architecture of the D class power amplifier is used for power transmission, the cutoff frequency of the transistor has a very high requirement, the greater the output power, the greater the influence of the output parasitic capacitance on the efficiency due to the charging and discharging; therefore, the influence of the transistor parasitic capacitance is strengthened with the increase of the frequency, which limits the application in higher frequency. If the B class power amplifier is used, the harmonic power loss introduced by the nonlinearity of the radio frequency needs to be considered, which will further deteriorate the efficiency and cause the transmission power to deteriorate synchronously, so the second harmonic control is needed to improve the efficiency; the theoretical highest efficiency will not exceed 78.5%, and with the increase of power transmission, a larger drain voltage is needed, which has a higher requirement on the voltage threshold of the die.

[0048] In addition, the traditional way to improve the efficiency is to increase the power delivered to the fundamental wave while keeping the direct current power consumption unchanged, or to reduce the sum of the power loss and the second and third harmonic power of the device.

[0049] In this application, in the circuit architecture, the influence of the parasitic capacitance and the cutoff frequency of the D class power amplifier is considered, and the circuit enabling advantage of the E class power amplifier is combined to reduce the threshold of the breakdown voltage of the transistor, and the D class power amplifier architecture is used, and the additional supplementary capacitor 140 based on the parasitic capacitance of the E class power amplifier is used to participate in the circuit charging and discharging to improve the cutoff frequency and reduce the parasitic loss.

[0050] The application reduces the threshold of the transistor breakdown voltage at the same output power through two series-connected transistors in the overall circuit architecture, and utilizes the extracted parasitic capacitance of the transistor output and the supplementary capacitance 140, the output matching inductance and the output LC filter to realize waveform shaping, reduce the influence of the parasitic capacitance on the performance in high-frequency power output, and reduce the complexity of the output matching, while reducing the overlapping area space between the voltage and the current, thereby improving the maximum output efficiency, so that the overall output efficiency reaches more than 90%.

[0051] Furthermore, through the internal matching mode, the parasitic capacitance of the substrate 170 also participates in impedance matching on the basis of reducing the overall volume, thereby converting the substrate parasitic capacitance which is originally not conducive to the performance of the radio frequency power device 100 into a beneficial influence, reducing the parasitic capacitance loss, and at the same time, the capacitance value of the supplementary capacitance 140 can be reduced, thereby reducing the volume of the supplementary capacitance 140 and reducing the overall internal matching size.

[0052] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 The input balun 110 provided by the application is formed by bonding wires and microstrip lines, in the diagram, the dashed line represents the bonding wire, and the solid line represents the microstrip line, at the same time, after the bonding wire cooperates with the microstrip line at the input end, the input balun 110 is realized by the center surface ferrite magnet rod of the bonding wire and the microstrip line, so as to improve the inductance of the input balun 110, achieve the purpose of improving the size of the input balun 110, that is, a smaller volume of the input balun 110 can obtain a larger inductance. The coupling degree and the impedance change ratio of the input balun 110 are determined by the inductance, the input enable signal is output to the two transistors through the balun to realize power amplifier switching, and by adjusting the relative position of the bonding wire, the overlapping area and the spacing of the two coils can be changed to change the coupling coefficient.

[0053] Similarly, the output inductance 150 is also composed of bonding wires and microstrip lines, in order to improve the inductance of the output inductance 150, the center of the bonding wire and the microstrip line of the output inductance 150 can also pass through the ferrite magnet rod to improve the size.

[0054] Among them, the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 need to be used as a radio frequency switch, and the enable of the input signal enables the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 to realize the switching of the on and off states, so the cutoff frequency requirement of the transistor itself is very high, therefore, the GaN transistor is selected in the application, which can guarantee a higher cutoff frequency and a good gain performance at high frequency. Secondly, the bonding wire and the winding inductance are used to realize the output, which can greatly reduce the balance between the quality factor and the wideband characteristics under the condition of guaranteeing the quality factor.

[0055] At the same time, please continue to refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1The middle C1 represents an equivalent parasitic capacitance (no actual capacitance in actual circuit connection) including the parasitic capacitances of the first transistor 120, the second transistor 130 and the substrate 170. Figure 1 The middle C2 represents the supplementary capacitance 140. It is to be noted that, in the process of impedance matching, if the parasitic capacitance can meet the requirement of impedance matching, the supplementary capacitance 140 is not needed; if the parasitic capacitance cannot meet the requirement of impedance matching, the required capacitance value is supplemented by the supplementary capacitance 140.

[0056] It is to be further noted that the supplementary capacitance 140 provided in the present application is a voltage-controlled capacitance, which can actually dynamically adjust the capacitance value through voltage, thereby ensuring different frequency points and compatibility of different batches of transistors.

[0057] In addition, in the process of internal matching, the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 are connected in series, and a substrate 170 is needed to realize the connection, that is, the source electrode of the first transistor 120 is attached to the substrate 170, and then connected to the drain electrode of the second transistor 130 through the bonding wire of the substrate 170. The substrate 170 will inevitably introduce parasitic capacitance due to its size, so the present application uses the parasitic capacitance of the substrate 170 to equivalently replace the supplementary capacitance 140 needed in the original circuit, thereby realizing the reduction of size and cost.

[0058] On this basis, in order to facilitate the connection between the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130, the first transistor 120 is arranged on the substrate 170, and the second transistor 130 is arranged outside the substrate 170 and connected through the bonding wire.

[0059] As an implementation manner, please refer to Figure 3 The substrate 170 is arranged in a "concave" shape, and the substrate 170 is provided with a slot, the width of the slot is greater than the width of the second transistor 130, and the second transistor 130 is installed at the slot of the substrate 170. In order to facilitate subsequent description, the end position of the slot is named as the end, and the position on both sides of the slot is named as the side end. By installing the second transistor 130 at the slot of the substrate 170, on the one hand, the distance between the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 can be relatively short, so that the connection between the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 is more convenient. On the other hand, in combination with Figure 2 It can be known that the first transistor 120 needs to be grounded, and since the bottom substrate 170 of the second transistor 130 is shielded, the grounding is more convenient.

[0060] In addition, since the substrate 170 is arranged in a "concave" shape, it is not a complete panel, which can achieve the effect of reducing the use of materials, thereby reducing the cost of the device.

[0061] In an implementation manner, please refer toFigure 4 The substrate 170 comprises a first mounting area 171, a second mounting area 172 and a third mounting area 173, which are integrally formed, and the first mounting area 171 and the third mounting area 173 are respectively located at two sides of the second mounting area 172, and the second mounting area 172 is located at the end of the slot; wherein the input balun 110 is located at the first mounting area 171, the first transistor 120 and the supplementary capacitor 140 are located at the second mounting area 172, and the output inductor 150 is located at the third mounting area 173.

[0062] Meanwhile, the substrate 170 further comprises an interconnection area 174, which is connected with the second mounting area 172. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the interconnection area 174 is connected with the second mounting area 172, and the interconnection area 174 is located at one side of the slot side end close to the third mounting area 173, and the surface of the interconnection area 174 and the second mounting area 172 is paved with a first metal layer, and the pin of the second transistor 130 is electrically connected with the first metal layer of the interconnection area 174.

[0063] On this basis, the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 are both MOS tubes, the drain of the first transistor 120 is electrically connected with the supplementary capacitor 140, the source of the first transistor 120 is electrically connected with the first metal layer of the second mounting area 172, the drain of the second transistor 130 is electrically connected with the first metal layer of the interconnection area 174, and the source of the second transistor 130 is grounded.

[0064] It should be noted that through the above arrangement, on the basis of ensuring that the substrate 170 is low in cost and the second transistor 130 can be more conveniently grounded, the source of the first transistor 120 only needs to be connected with the first metal layer on the surface of the substrate 170, and the drain of the second transistor 130 is directly connected with the metal layer of the interconnection area 174 closest to it, so that the electrical connection between the source of the first transistor 120 and the drain of the second transistor 130 is ensured. In addition, the shortest bonding wire can be used to realize the connection between the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130, thereby saving the cost.

[0065] In one implementation manner, the second transistor 130 is flush with the substrate 170, which facilitates the bonding between the second transistor 130 and the interconnection area 174.

[0066] The substrate 170 includes a front surface and a back surface, the second mounting area 172 is located on the front surface of the substrate 170, the first metal layer is arranged on the second mounting area 172 and the interconnection area 174, and the second metal layer is arranged on the back surface of the substrate 170. It can be understood that in this way, the first metal layer and the second metal layer can be used to form a capacitor, thereby expanding the capacitance of the parasitic capacitance of the substrate 170, so that the capacitance of the supplementary capacitor 140 can be smaller, that is, a smaller supplementary capacitor 140 can be selected to complete the device matching, and the device volume is further reduced.

[0067] In addition, the input balun 110 is electrically connected to the control end of the first transistor 120 and the second transistor 130 through the first microstrip line 180 and the second microstrip line 190 respectively, the source of the first transistor 120 is electrically connected to the supplementary capacitor 140 through the third microstrip line 200, the source of the second transistor 130 is electrically connected to the first metal layer of the interconnection area 174 through the fourth microstrip line 210, and the first microstrip line 180, the second microstrip line 190, the third microstrip line 200 and the fourth microstrip line 210 are used for participating in impedance matching.

[0068] The first microstrip line 180, the second microstrip line 190, the third microstrip line 200 and the fourth microstrip line 210 are equivalent to Figure 1 inductances L1-L4 respectively, and the first microstrip line 180, the second microstrip line 190, the third microstrip line 200 and the fourth microstrip line 210 are used for participating in impedance matching, so as to further reduce the size of impedance matching.

[0069] As an implementation manner, the radio frequency power device 100 further includes a DC blocking capacitor 160, one end of the DC blocking capacitor 160 is electrically connected to the output inductor 150, and the other end of the DC blocking capacitor 160 is used for connecting a load. The DC blocking capacitor 160 is used for isolating direct current, and of course, the DC blocking capacitor 160 can also participate in impedance matching.

[0070] Based on the above implementation manner, the application further provides an electronic device, which includes the radio frequency power device 100 described above.

[0071] In an implementation manner, referring to Figure 6 , the electronic device further includes an external impedance matching network 220, the external impedance matching network 220 is electrically connected to the output inductor 150, and the external impedance matching network 220 is used for connecting a load. The final output impedance Zload of the radio frequency power device 100 is an efficient impedance combining point, and the impedance can be configured to 50 ohm through the external impedance matching network 220. In an implementation manner, the external impedance matching network 220 can be a Pi-type network.

[0072] In summary, the application provides a radio frequency power device and an electronic device, the radio frequency power device comprising a substrate, an input balun, a first transistor, a supplementary capacitor and an output inductor on the substrate, a second transistor outside the substrate, the input balun being electrically connected to control ends of the first transistor and the second transistor respectively, and the input balun being configured to receive an enable signal, the first transistor and the second transistor being connected in series at one end to a power supply and the supplementary capacitor, and being grounded at the other end, and the connection points of the first transistor and the second transistor being electrically connected to the input balun, the supplementary capacitor and the output inductor respectively, and the output inductor being configured to connect to a load; wherein the output inductor, the supplementary capacitor, the parasitic capacitances of the first transistor and the second transistor and the parasitic capacitance of the substrate are collectively configured to realize impedance matching. On the one hand, since the impedance matching circuit of the application is arranged inside the radio frequency power device, internal matching is realized, so that an external matching circuit does not need to be built, and the overall volume is reduced. On the other hand, since the application utilizes the parasitic capacitances of the transistor and the substrate to participate in matching, the device performance is improved, and the internal matching size is also reduced, thereby further reducing the volume of the radio frequency power device.
