Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of amplifier circuits, and in particular to a circuit structure and a control method of a low-noise amplifier. Background Art
[0002] A low-noise amplifier (LNA) is a key element in wireless communication links. It amplifies weak signals carrying information received from the antenna and transmits the resulting information to the next stage of the circuit. However, LNAs generate noise, and during the amplification of weak signals, this noise can cause interference and affect signal accuracy. To mitigate this issue, bypass modules are integrated into LNA circuit designs to improve the receiver's dynamic range.
[0003] In an LNA with an integrated bypass module, when the LNA receives a low-power signal, the LNA enters the amplification mode, amplifying the received signal and outputting it to the next stage circuit. When a high-power signal is received, the LNA enters the bypass mode, attenuating the high-power signal and transmitting it to the next stage circuit. Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is an existing LNA structure with an integrated bypass module, in which M1 is an active amplifier, DC_Block is a DC-blocking capacitor, and DC_Feed is an AC-blocking inductor. The input and output matching networks ensure that the active amplifier M1 operates within a specified frequency band. When the LNA input LNA_IN receives a low-power signal, the circuit power supply Vbias and the device operating power supply VDD provide a bias voltage for the amplifier M1, causing M1 to operate in the saturation amplification region. After amplification by the active amplifier M1, the low-power signal is output to the next stage circuit through the LNA output LNA_OUT. When the LNA input LNA_IN receives a high-power signal, the power supply Vbias and the device operating voltage VDD are deactivated, causing the active amplifier M1 to operate in the cutoff region. The first power supply VC1 provides a high-level voltage signal, causing the switch SW1 to operate in the linear resistance region. The high-power signal is then output through the switch SW1 to LNA_OUT.
[0004] However, in the existing LNA structure, when the effective voltage of a high-power signal received at the LNA input exceeds the maximum gate-source withstand voltage of the active amplifier M1, the gate-source of the active amplifier M1 may easily break down, causing the signal received at the input to leak from the M1 source to ground. This can cause the LNA circuit to cease normal operation and reduce the reliability of the LNA. Summary of the Invention

[0044] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the circuit structure of a low noise amplifier provided by an embodiment of the present invention.
[0045] The present invention provides a circuit structure of a low-noise amplifier, including a circuit power supply Vbias, a device operating power supply VDD, a resistive alternating current inductor DC_Feed, a first DC blocking capacitor DC_Block1, a second DC blocking capacitor DC_Block2, an input matching network, an output matching network, an active amplifier tube M1, a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, a first power supply, and a first switch tube SW1. The first end of the input matching network is connected to the input end LNA_IN of the low-noise amplifier, the second end of the input matching network is connected to the first end of the first DC blocking capacitor DC_Block1, the circuit power supply Vbias is connected to the first resistor R1, and is connected to the second end of the first DC blocking capacitor DC_Block1 through the first resistor R1. The first end of the active amplifier tube M1 is connected to the first DC blocking capacitor DC_Block The circuit structure further comprises: a first terminal of the first switching transistor SW1 is connected to the second end of the first resistor R2; a second terminal of the second resistor R2 is connected to the first end of the first switching transistor SW1; a second terminal of the first switching transistor SW1 is connected to the output terminal LNA_OUT of the low noise amplifier; and a third terminal of the first switching transistor SW1 is connected to the input terminal LNA_IN of the low noise amplifier.
[0046] A second power supply, a third resistor R3, a second switch SW2, a first capacitor C1, and a second capacitor C2;
[0047] The second power supply is connected to the first end of the third resistor R3, and the second end of the third resistor R3 is connected to the first end of the second switch tube SW2;
[0048] The second end of the second switch tube SW2 is connected to the third end of the active amplifier tube M1;
[0049] The third terminal of the second switch tube SW2 is grounded;
[0050] A first end of the third switch SW3 is connected to the first power supply, a second end of the third switch SW3 is connected to the second end of the first capacitor C1, and a first end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the first end of the second DC blocking capacitor DC_Block2;
[0051] The third terminal of the third switch tube SW3 is connected to the first terminal of the second capacitor C2;
[0052] A second terminal of the second capacitor C2 is grounded.
[0053] It should be noted that this embodiment provides a circuit structure of a low-noise amplifier, which is an improvement based on the existing circuit structure. The specific improvements are: 1) the active amplifier tube M1 is not directly grounded, but is connected to the second switch tube SW2 and then grounded; 2) a ground path consisting of the first capacitor C1, the third switch tube SW3, and the second capacitor C2 is connected in parallel between the second DC blocking capacitor DC_Block2 and the output terminal LNA_OUT.
[0054] In this embodiment, when the low-noise amplifier input terminal LNA_IN receives a low-power signal, the circuit power supply Vbias and the device operating power supply VDD provide a DC bias voltage for the active amplifier M1, causing the active amplifier M1 to operate in the saturation amplification region. Furthermore, by controlling the first power supply VC1 to output a low level, the first switch SW1 and the third switch SW3 are in the cutoff region. By controlling the second power supply VC2 to output a high level, the second switch SW2 is in the linear resistance region. As a result, the input low-power signal is amplified by the active amplifier M1 and then output to the low-noise amplifier output terminal LNA_OUT.
[0055] When the input terminal LNA_IN of the low noise amplifier receives a high power signal, the circuit power supply Vbias and the device working power supply VDD stop supplying power, so that the active amplifier tube M1 is in the cut-off region, and by controlling the second power supply VC2 to a low level, the second switch tube SW2 is in the cut-off region. At this time, the withstand voltage range of the active amplifier tube M1 is V GSmax +V DSmax , where V GSmaxis the maximum gate-source voltage of M1, V DSmax is the maximum withstand voltage at the drain-source terminal of the second switch SW2. Therefore, this embodiment improves the withstand voltage range of the active amplifier M1 and reduces the risk of breakdown of the active amplifier M1. Furthermore, by controlling the first power supply VC1 to a high level, this embodiment places the first and third switches SW1 and SW3 in a linear resistance region, allowing the input high-power signal to be output to the output terminal LNA_OUT of the low-noise amplifier through the first switch SW1. Furthermore, through the leakage path formed by the first capacitor C1, the third switch SW3, and the second capacitor C2, most of the power signal returning from the output terminal LNA_OUT is discharged to ground, effectively reducing the risk of the high-power signal at the output terminal LNA_OUT of the low-noise amplifier returning to the active amplifier M1 and causing breakdown of the active amplifier M1.
[0056] Therefore, when receiving a high-power signal, this embodiment increases the voltage withstand range of the active amplifier M1 and reduces the risk of breakdown of the active amplifier M1 by adding the second switch SW2 connected to the active amplifier M1. Furthermore, through the leakage path formed by the first capacitor C1, the third switch SW3, and the second capacitor C2, most of the power signal flowing back from the output terminal LNA_OUT is discharged to ground. This further reduces the risk of the high-power signal at the output terminal LNA_OUT of the low-noise amplifier flowing back to the active amplifier M1 and causing breakdown of the active amplifier M1, thereby improving the reliability of the low-noise amplifier. When receiving a low-power signal, this embodiment controls the first power supply VC1 to a low level, placing the first switch SW1 and the third switch SW3 in a cutoff region. This allows the input power signal to be amplified by the active amplifier M1 and then output to the output terminal LNA_OUT of the low-noise amplifier. Therefore, this embodiment improves the reliability of the low-noise amplifier without affecting the original performance of the low-noise amplifier.
[0057] In a preferred embodiment, the low noise amplifier further comprises: an attenuation module;
[0058] The attenuation module is disposed in a path between the first switch tube SW1 and the output terminal LNA_OUT of the low noise amplifier.
[0059] It should be noted that the attenuation module further attenuates high-power signals, thereby reducing the power of the signal reaching the low-noise amplifier's output terminal, LNA_OUT. This prevents excessive signal power at the output terminal, LNA_OUT, from damaging the drain of active amplifier M1 and potentially causing breakdown of the active amplifier. Furthermore, the addition of the attenuation module improves the isolation between the low-noise amplifier's amplification path and the bypass path, further enhancing the reliability of the low-noise amplifier.
[0060] In a preferred embodiment, the attenuation module includes a T-type attenuation network, a fourth resistor R4 and a fourth switch SW4;
[0061] The first end of the T-type attenuation network is connected to the second end of the first switch tube SW1;
[0062] The second end of the T-type attenuation network is connected to the third end of the fourth switch tube SW4;
[0063] A first end of the fourth switch tube SW4 is connected to the second end of the fourth resistor R4, and a first end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the first power supply VC1;
[0064] A second end of the fourth switch tube SW4 is connected to the output end LNA_OUT of the low noise amplifier.
[0065] In this embodiment, when the input terminal LNA_IN receives a low-power signal, the circuit power supply Vbias and the device operating power supply VDD provide a DC bias voltage for the active amplifier M1, causing the active amplifier M1 to operate in the saturation amplification region. Furthermore, by controlling the first power supply VC1 to a low level, the first, third, and fourth switches SW1, SW3, and SW4 are in the cutoff region. By controlling the second power supply VC2 to a high level, the second switch SW2 is in the linear resistance region. As a result, the input low-power signal is amplified by the active amplifier M1 and output to the low-noise amplifier's output terminal LNA_OUT.
[0066] In this embodiment, when the input terminal LNA_IN receives a high-power signal, the circuit power supply Vbias and the device operating power supply VDD stop supplying power, so that the active amplifier tube M1 is in the cut-off region, and by controlling the second power supply VC2 to a low level, the second switch tube SW2 is in the cut-off region. At this time, the voltage range of the active amplifier tube M1 is V GSmax +V DSmax , where V GSmax is the maximum gate-source voltage of M1, V DSmaxis the maximum withstand voltage at the drain-source terminal of the second switch SW2. Therefore, this embodiment increases the withstand voltage range of the active amplifier M1 and reduces the risk of breakdown of the active amplifier M1. Simultaneously, the first power supply VC1 is controlled to a high level, placing the first, third, and fourth switches SW1, SW3, and SW4 in the linear resistance region. This allows the input high-power signal to sequentially pass through the first switch SW1, the T-type attenuation network, and the fourth switch SW4 to be output to the output terminal LNA_OUT of the low-noise amplifier. Furthermore, through the leakage path formed by the first capacitor C1, the third switch SW3, and the second capacitor C2, most of the power signal returning from the output terminal LNA_OUT is discharged to ground, effectively reducing the risk of the high-power signal at the output terminal LNA_OUT of the low-noise amplifier returning to the active amplifier M1 and causing breakdown of the active amplifier M1.
[0067] This embodiment further attenuates high-power signals by adding a T-type attenuation network, a fourth switch SW4, and a fourth resistor R4, thereby reducing the power of the signal reaching the low-noise amplifier output terminal LNA_OUT. This prevents excessive signal power at the output terminal LNA_OUT from damaging the drain of the active amplifier M1 and causing breakdown of the active amplifier M1, thereby improving the dynamic range of the LNA circuit. Furthermore, the addition of the fourth switch SW4 and fourth resistor R4 enhances the isolation between the low-noise amplifier's amplification path and the bypass path, further improving the reliability of the low-noise amplifier.
