[0002] In radio frequency (RF) circuits, single-pole multiple-throw (SPMD) switches are commonly used for circuit multiplexing to reduce costs. RF circuits also frequently employ passive structural modules such as baluns, couplers, and 3dB bridges for signal synthesis and distribution. However, when one of the switches in a SPMD switch is closed to form a circuit, parasitic capacitance exists between the input and output terminals of each open switch. These parasitic capacitances increase the insertion loss of the SPMD switch, and this insertion loss worsens with the increase in the number of channels, severely affecting the performance of the SPMD switch.

[0025] To achieve the above objectives, this application also proposes a radio frequency device, which includes the radio frequency switching device described above, and will not be repeated here.
[0026] The technical solution of this application comprises a radio frequency (RF) switch circuit consisting of a passive structural device and multiple switch modules. In this RF switch circuit, the passive structural device includes multiple switch access ports, each of which is connected to a corresponding switch module. The switch module consists of at least one RF switch and a function maintenance unit connected in parallel. One end of the RF switch is connected to the switch access port, and the other end is connected to the switch port. The function maintenance unit is used to maintain the function of the passive device. In this way, when the RF switch in one of the switching modules closes, the function maintenance unit in the switch modules that are not closed will form a path together with the closed RF switch, thereby realizing the function of the passive structure device. At this time, since different switching modules are connected to different switch access ports of the passive structure device, the parasitic capacitance of the RF switches in other switch modules that are not closed will not affect the path formed by the closed RF switch. Therefore, this application realizes that by grouping multiple RF switches in a single-pole multi-throw switch and connecting them in parallel with the function maintenance unit to form multiple switching modules, since these multiple switching modules are connected to different switch access ports of the passive structure device, the parasitic capacitance formed when each RF switch in the switching module is open will not affect the path formed when the switch in other switching modules is closed. Therefore, the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch in the RF circuit can be reduced. Attached Figure Description

[0041] Currently, switches typically experience insertion losses when connected to circuits. Taking a MOS switch as an example, refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 1 This diagram illustrates the equivalent models of a MOS switch in both its on and off states. When the MOS switch is on, a parasitic resistance R exists between its input and output terminals. ON When a MOS switch is turned off, a parasitic capacitance C exists between the input and output terminals of the switch. DS However, regardless of whether the switch is on or off, there is a parasitic capacitance C to ground at both ends of the switch. S and C D For single-pole multi-throw (SPMW) switches, all switches are connected to the same input port. This results in all parasitic capacitances from the switches to ground being connected to the input port. These parasitic capacitances will severely degrade (increase) the insertion loss of the switches. The more switching channels an SPMW switch has, the more severe the deterioration of the insertion loss.
[0042] This application discloses a radio frequency switch circuit. In one embodiment of this application, refer to... Figure 2 and Figure 3 The radio frequency switch circuit includes a passive structural device 100 and multiple switch modules 200.
[0043] The passive structural device 100 includes a common terminal and multiple switch access ports 1 to N. Each switch access port 1 to N of the passive structural device 100 is connected to a switch module 200. The switch module 200 is composed of multiple radio frequency switches L and a function maintenance unit 20A connected in parallel. One end of the radio frequency switch L is connected to the corresponding switch access port on the passive structural device 100, and the other end of the radio frequency switch L is connected to the corresponding switch port P. The function maintenance unit 20A is connected to the corresponding switch access port on the passive structural device 100 and is used to maintain the function of the passive device. Thus, in this embodiment of the application, the original single-pole multi-throw switch group is divided into multiple switch modules 200, and the multiple switch modules 200 are connected to different switch access ports of the passive structural device 100. Therefore, the multiple switch modules 200 are isolated from each other. When the RF switch L in any switch module 200 is closed, the parasitic resistance of the RF switch L in other switch modules 200 will not affect the circuit path formed after the RF switch is closed, thereby reducing the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch in the RF circuit.
[0044] As an example, the RF switch L can be at least one of the following: a MOS switch, a transistor switch, a diode switch, and a circuit module power-on / off switch.
[0045] As an example, the passive structural device 100 can be at least one of the following: a transformer balun, a two-wire coupler, and a three-wire coupler.
[0046] As an example, the function maintenance unit 20A includes a function maintenance switch S. If an RF switch L changes from an open state to a closed state, the function maintenance switch S in the switch module 200, which does not contain an RF switch L in a closed state, will be closed. This will connect the circuit path that realizes the function of the passive device, thereby reducing the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch while ensuring the function of the passive structure device 100.
[0047] As an example, refer to Figure 4 The passive structural device 100 is a transformer balun 100A, the plurality of switching modules 200 include a first switching module 201 and a second switching module 202, and the function maintenance unit 20A includes a function maintenance switch S.
[0048] The input terminal of the transformer balun 100A is connected to the output terminal of the differential RF circuit; one end of each RF switch L in the first switch module 201 is connected to the first input terminal A of the transformer balun 100A, and the other end of each RF switch L in the first switch module 201 is connected to its corresponding first switch port P1; one end of the function maintenance switch S in the first switch module 201 is connected to the first input terminal A of the transformer balun 100A, and the other end of the function maintenance switch S in the first switch module 201 is grounded; one end of each RF switch L in the second switch module 202 is connected to the second input terminal B of the transformer balun 100A, and the other end of each RF switch L in the second switch module 202 is connected to its corresponding second switch port P2; one end of the function maintenance switch S in the second switch module 202 is connected to the second input terminal B of the transformer balun 100A, and the other end of the function maintenance switch S in the second switch module 202 is grounded.
[0049] As an example, if the RF switch L in the first switch module 201 changes from an open state to a closed state, the function maintenance switch S in the second switch module 202 closes, and the four terminals of the transformer balun 100A are connected to form a circuit path for realizing the transformer balun function. Thus, when implementing the transformer balun function, since the first switch module 201 and the second switch module 202 are connected to different input terminals of the transformer balun 100A, and the circuit path for realizing the transformer balun function is generated by the closure of the RF switch L in the first switch module 201, the parasitic capacitance from each RF switch L in the second switch module 202 to ground will not affect the circuit path for realizing the transformer balun function, thereby reducing the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch when implementing the transformer balun function.
[0050] As an example, if the RF switch L in the second switch module 202 changes from an open state to a closed state, then the function-maintaining switch S in the first switch module 201 is closed, and the four terminals of the transformer balun 100A will also be connected to form a circuit path for realizing the transformer balun function. Thus, when implementing the transformer balun function, since the first switch module 201 and the second switch module 202 are connected to different input terminals of the transformer balun 100A, and the circuit path for realizing the transformer balun function is generated by the closure of the RF switch L in the second switch module 202, the parasitic capacitance from each RF switch L in the first switch module 201 to ground will not affect the circuit path for realizing the transformer balun function, thereby reducing the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch when implementing the transformer balun function.
[0051] As an example, refer to Figure 5 The passive structural device 100 is a two-wire coupler 100B, the plurality of switching modules 200 include a third switching module 203 and a fourth switching module 204, and the function maintenance unit 20A includes a first function maintenance impedance R1 and a function maintenance switch S.
[0052] The two-wire coupler 100B includes a first output terminal M1, a second output terminal M2, a first input terminal C, and a second input terminal D. In the third switch module 203, one end of each RF switch L is connected to the first input terminal C of the two-wire coupler 100B, and the other end of each RF switch L is connected to the corresponding third switch port P3. One end of the function sustaining switch S in the third switch module 203 is connected to the first input terminal C of the two-wire coupler 100B, and the other end of the function sustaining switch S is connected to the corresponding first function sustaining impedance R1. In the fourth switch module 204, one end of each RF switch L is connected to the second input terminal D of the two-wire coupler 100B, and the other end of each RF switch L is connected to the corresponding fourth switch port P4. One end of the function sustaining switch S in the fourth switch module 204 is connected to the first input terminal D of the two-wire coupler 100B, and the other end of the function sustaining switch S is connected to the corresponding first function sustaining impedance R1.
[0053] As an example, the two-wire coupler 100B can be a 3dB bridge, and the first functional sustaining impedance can be a 50-ohm impedance.
[0054] As an example, if the RF switch L in the third switch module 203 changes from an open state to a closed state, then the function-maintaining switch S in the fourth switch module 204 is closed. At this time, the first input terminal C of the two-wire coupler 100B serves as the signal input terminal, and the second input terminal D of the two-wire coupler 100B serves as the isolation terminal. The four terminals of the two-wire coupler 100B are connected to form a circuit path that realizes the function of the two-wire coupler. In this way, when implementing the function of the two-wire coupler, since the third switch module 203 and the fourth switch module 204 are respectively connected to the signal input terminal and the isolation terminal of the two-wire coupler 100B, and the circuit path that realizes the function of the two-wire coupler is generated by the closure of the RF switch L in the third switch module 203, the parasitic capacitance of each RF switch L in the fourth switch module 204 will not affect the circuit path that realizes the function of the two-wire coupler, thus reducing the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch when implementing the function of the two-wire coupler.
[0055] As an example, if the RF switch L in the fourth switch module 204 changes from an open state to a closed state, then the function-maintaining switch S in the third switch module 203 is closed. At this time, the second input terminal D of the two-wire coupler 100B serves as the signal input terminal, and the first input terminal C of the two-wire coupler 100B serves as the isolation terminal. The four terminals of the two-wire coupler 100B are connected to form a circuit path that realizes the function of the two-wire coupler. In this way, when implementing the function of the two-wire coupler, since the third switch module 203 and the fourth switch module 204 are respectively connected to the isolation terminal and the signal input terminal of the two-wire coupler 100B, and the circuit path that realizes the function of the two-wire coupler is generated by the closure of the RF switch L in the fourth switch module 204, the parasitic capacitance of each RF switch L in the third switch module 203 will not affect the circuit path that realizes the function of the two-wire coupler, thus reducing the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch when implementing the function of the two-wire coupler.
[0056] As an example, refer to Figure 6 The passive structural device 100 is a three-wire coupler 100C, the plurality of switch modules 200 include a fifth switch module 205, a sixth switch module 206 and a seventh switch module 207, and the function maintenance unit 20A includes a function maintenance switch S and a second function maintenance impedance R2.
[0057] The three-wire coupler 100C includes a first input terminal E, a second input terminal F, a third input terminal G, a first output terminal M3, a second output terminal M4, and a third output terminal M5; one end of each RF switch L in the fifth switch module 205 is connected to the first input terminal E of the three-wire coupler 100C, and the other end of each RF switch L in the fifth switch module 205 is connected to the corresponding fifth switch port P5; one end of the function maintenance switch S in the fifth switch module 205 is connected to the first input terminal E of the three-wire coupler 100C, and the other end of the function maintenance switch S in the fifth switch module 205 is connected to the corresponding second function maintenance impedance R2; one end of the RF switch L in the sixth switch module 206 is connected to the second input terminal F of the three-wire coupler 100C, and the sixth switch module 206... In the sixth switch module 206, one end of the RF switch L is connected to the corresponding sixth switch port P6. One end of the function sustaining switch S in the sixth switch module 206 is connected to the second input terminal F of the three-wire coupler 100C, and the other end of the function sustaining switch S in the sixth switch module 206 is connected to the corresponding second function sustaining impedance R2. In the seventh switch module 207, one end of the RF switch L is connected to the third input terminal G of the three-wire coupler 100C, and the other end of the RF switch L in the seventh switch module 207 is connected to the corresponding seventh switch port P7. One end of the function sustaining switch S in the seventh switch module 207 is connected to the third input terminal G of the three-wire coupler 100C, and the other end of the function sustaining switch S in the seventh switch module 207 is connected to the corresponding second function sustaining impedance R2.
[0058] As an example, the second functional sustaining impedance R2 can be a 50-ohm impedance.
[0059] As an example, if the RF switch L in the fifth switch module 205 changes from an open state to a closed state, then the function maintenance switches S in the sixth switch module 206 and the seventh switch module 207 are closed, and the six terminals of the three-wire coupler 100C are connected to form a circuit path for realizing the function of the three-wire coupler 100C. Thus, when implementing the three-wire coupler function, since the fifth switch module 205, the sixth switch module 206, and the seventh switch module 207 are respectively connected to different input terminals of the three-wire coupler 100C, and the circuit path for realizing the function of the three-wire coupler 100C is generated by the closure of the RF switch L in the fifth switch module 205, the parasitic capacitances of each RF switch L in the sixth switch module 206 and the seventh switch module 207 will not affect the circuit path for realizing the three-wire coupler function, thereby reducing the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch when implementing the three-wire coupler function.
[0060] As an example, if the RF switch L in the sixth switch module 206 changes from an open state to a closed state, then the function maintenance switch S in the fifth switch module 205 and the seventh switch module 207 is closed, and the six terminals of the three-wire coupler 100C are connected to form a circuit path for realizing the three-wire coupler function. Thus, when implementing the three-wire coupler function, since the fifth switch module 205, the sixth switch module 206, and the seventh switch module 207 are respectively connected to different input terminals of the three-wire coupler 100C, and the circuit path for realizing the three-wire coupler function is generated by the closure of the RF switch L in the sixth switch module 206, the parasitic capacitance of each RF switch L in the fifth switch module 205 and the seventh switch module 207 will not affect the circuit path for realizing the three-wire coupler function, thereby reducing the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch when implementing the three-wire coupler function.
[0061] As an example, if the RF switch L in the seventh switch module 207 changes from an open state to a closed state, then the function maintenance switch S in the fifth switch module 205 and the sixth switch module 206 is closed, and the six terminals of the three-wire coupler 100C are connected to form a circuit path for realizing the three-wire coupler function. Thus, when implementing the three-wire coupler function, since the fifth switch module 205, the sixth switch module 206, and the seventh switch module 207 are respectively connected to different input terminals of the three-wire coupler 100C, and the circuit path for realizing the three-wire coupler 100C function is generated by the closure of the RF switch L in the seventh switch module 207, the parasitic capacitance of each RF switch L in the fifth switch module 205 and the sixth switch module 206 will not affect the circuit path for realizing the three-wire coupler function, thereby reducing the insertion loss of the single-pole multi-throw switch when implementing the three-wire coupler function.
