Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of communication equipment technology, and in particular to a surface acoustic wave device. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous advancement of wireless communication technology, especially the development of 5G NR technology, more and more wireless frequency bands are being used. Selecting different frequency bands and reducing interference between them will become increasingly complex, thus posing greater challenges to radio frequency (RF) front-end devices. Filters, as crucial components of the RF front-end, enable the selection of wireless signals from specific frequency bands, playing a vital role in mobile communications, the Internet of Things (IoT), and VR / AR applications. Duplexers or multiplexers, composed of multiple transmit and receive filters, can achieve synchronous transmission and reception in FDD-coded mode, and will have broader application prospects and stronger market competitiveness in the complex wireless spectrum environment of the future.
[0003] With the continuous evolution of RF front-end integration technology, there will be higher requirements for the miniaturization design of devices. In the entire RF link, the multiplexer mainly serves as the first or last stage of the transmitting carrier. Reducing the insertion loss of the filter will have a direct impact on the sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio of the receiving system. Improving the suppression of the transmitting end on the receiving end can greatly improve the anti-interference capability and enhance the communication quality.
[0004] Currently, most methods to improve the suppression of multiplexers involve shifting the zero point of the resonator by loading an inductor onto the substrate, thereby enhancing its suppression. However, due to the low Q value of the inductor, this can have a fatal effect on the passband of the multiplexer, affecting the overall insertion loss. Another approach is to connect a phase shifter in parallel at the transmitter and receiver to cancel the signals transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver, thus achieving high isolation at the receiver. However, this method is not easily miniaturized. A small number of methods use a loaded suppression resonator, which can only improve isolation in a very narrow frequency band. Furthermore, due to bulk wave limitations, the resonator can only be shifted from low to high frequencies, and the suppression of low frequencies is relatively weakened. Summary of the Invention

[0050] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0051] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.
[0052] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the circuit structure of a surface acoustic wave device provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 Is with Figure 1 A corresponding circuit layout for a surface acoustic wave device, in conjunction with a reference. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The surface acoustic wave (SAW) device 00 includes: a circuit layout of a first region A1 and a second region A2; the SAW device 00 further includes: at least one first bridging trace B1; at least one first filter 10 located in the first region A1; a first grounding network G1 corresponding to each of the first filters 10, and each first grounding network G1 is located in the first region A1; a second filter 20 located in the second region A2 and corresponding to each of the first filters 10; a second grounding trace G2 corresponding to each of the second filters 20, and each second grounding trace G2 is located in the second region A2; the first filter 10 is electrically connected to the first grounding network G1; the second filter 20 is electrically connected to the second grounding network G2; the first bridging trace B1 spans the first region A1 and the second region A2, and one end of the first bridging trace B1 in the first region A1 is electrically connected to the first grounding network G1, and one end of the first bridging trace B1 in the second region A2 is electrically connected to the second grounding network G2.
[0053] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2An illustrative example is shown where a first region A1 includes a first filter 10 and a corresponding second region A2 includes a second filter 20. In this case, one filter is a transmitting filter TX and the other is a receiving filter RX, meaning the surface acoustic wave device 00 is a duplexer. For example, the first filter 10 can be configured as the transmitting filter TX and the second filter 20 as the receiving filter RX. In this case, the input terminal of the first filter 10 is the signal input terminal RIN of the surface acoustic wave device 00, and the output terminal of the first filter 10 is the antenna terminal ANT. The surface acoustic wave device 00 can transmit radio frequency signals from the antenna terminal ANT. The receiving terminal of the second filter 20 is the antenna terminal ANT, and the output terminal of the second filter 20 is the output terminal ROT of the surface acoustic wave device 00. It can receive external radio frequency signals from the antenna terminal ANT and transmit these signals to the signal output terminal ROT of the surface acoustic wave device 00. The second filter 20 also includes a ground terminal, wherein the first filter 10 is electrically connected to the first grounding network G1 within its region; specifically, the ground terminal of the first filter 10 is electrically connected to the first grounding network G1. Similarly, the second filter 20 is electrically connected to the second grounding trace G2 within its area; specifically, the grounding terminal of the second filter 20 can be considered as being electrically connected to the second grounding network G1. Both the first grounding network G1 and the second grounding network G2 are electrically connected to the external grounding terminal GND.
[0054] The first bridging trace B1 can be configured in a one-to-one correspondence with the first filter 10. In some feasible embodiments, the number of first bridging traces B1 can be less than the number of first filters 10, and this embodiment of the present invention does not specifically limit this. The first bridging trace B1 can span the first region A1 and the second region A2, so that one end of it located in the first region A1 is electrically connected to the first grounding network G1, and the other end located in the second region A2 is electrically connected to the second grounding network G1. Thus, the first grounding network G1 and the second grounding network G1 located in the two regions are electrically connected through the first bridging trace B1, realizing the common ground connection between the first filter 10 and the second filter 20. Tests show that the common ground connection between the first filter 10 and the second filter 20 can effectively improve the noise signal suppression of the surface acoustic wave device 00, and can also improve the isolation of the surface acoustic wave device 00, thereby improving the signal suppression performance of the surface acoustic wave device 00.
[0055] The surface acoustic wave (SAW) device provided in this embodiment of the invention connects two filters in the SAW device to a common ground by bridging them with a first bridging trace. This can effectively improve the suppression and isolation of the SAW device, thereby effectively improving the signal suppression performance and overall performance of the SAW device, and can also meet the miniaturization design requirements of the SAW device.
[0056] For example, when the surface acoustic wave device is a multiplexer, the first grounding network G1 and the second grounding network G2 can be electrically connected. The types of each first filter 10 can be the same, i.e., all can be transmitting filters TX, in which case each second filter 20 corresponds to a receiving filter. Alternatively, the types of each first filter 10 can be different, i.e., each first filter 10 can have a transmitting filter TX and a receiving filter RX, in which case each second filter 20 also has a corresponding transmitting filter TX and a receiving filter RX. In the first region A1 and the second region A2, the number of transmitting filters TX is the same as the number of receiving filters RX, so that one transmitting filter TX and one receiving filter RX form a group, and each frequency band can be configured to have a corresponding group of transmitting filters TX and receiving filters RX.
[0057] Optional, Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the circuit structure of another surface acoustic wave device provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 Is with Figure 3 A corresponding circuit layout for a surface acoustic wave device, in conjunction with a reference. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first region A1 includes at least two first filters 10 and at least two first grounding networks G1 that are configured one-to-one with each of the first filters 10. The second region A2 includes at least two second filters 20 and at least two second grounding networks G2 that are configured one-to-one with each of the second filters 20. The first filter 10 and the second filter 20 that are electrically connected to the same first bridging line B1 are respectively the transmitting filter Tx and the receiving filter RX.
[0058] Specifically, since the first grounding network G1 is configured one-to-one with the first filter 10 and is electrically connected to the corresponding first filter 10, and the second grounding network G2 is configured one-to-one with the second filter 20 and is electrically connected to the corresponding second filter 20, the first bridging trace B1 being electrically connected to the first grounding trace G1 is equivalent to the first bridging trace B1 being electrically connected to the first filter 10 corresponding to the first grounding network G1. Similarly, the first bridging trace B1 being electrically connected to the second grounding trace G2 is equivalent to the first bridging trace B1 being electrically connected to the second filter 20 corresponding to the second grounding network G2. When the surface acoustic wave device 00 is a multiplexer, the first filter 10 and the second filter 20 electrically connected to the same first bridging trace B1 can be the transmitting filter TX and the receiving filter RX, respectively. In this way, the noise suppression degree of the surface acoustic wave device 00 can also be improved, and the isolation degree of the surface acoustic wave device 00 can be improved. The first filter 10 and the second filter 20, which are electrically connected to the same first bridging trace B1, can be a transmitting filter TX and a receiving filter RX in the same frequency band, or they can be transmitting filters TX and receiving filters RX in different frequency bands. This embodiment of the invention does not specifically limit their applications. It should be noted that... Figure 4 The example shown only illustrates a surface acoustic wave device 00 including two first bridging traces B1, and two first grounding networks G1 respectively electrically connected to the corresponding second grounding network G2 through one first bridging trace B1. It can be understood that when the surface acoustic wave device 00 is a multiplexer, it may also include only one first bridging trace B1. In this case, a set of first grounding traces G1 and second grounding traces G2 can be electrically connected through the first bridging trace B1. The embodiments of the present invention do not specifically limit this.
[0059] Optional, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the circuit structure of another surface acoustic wave device provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 Is with Figure 5 A corresponding circuit layout for a surface acoustic wave device, in conjunction with a reference. Figure 5 and Figure 6 The first region A1 includes at least two first filters 10 and at least two first grounding networks G1 that are configured one-to-one with each of the first filters 10. The second region A2 includes at least two second filters 20 and at least two second grounding networks G2 that are configured one-to-one with each of the second filters 20. The first filters 10 and the second filters 20 that are electrically connected to the same first bridging line B1 are both transmitting filters TX.
[0060] Specifically, when the surface acoustic wave device 00 is a multiplexer, the first filter 10 and the second filter 20, which are electrically connected to the same first bridging trace B1, can also both be transmitting filters TX, which can also improve the noise suppression degree of the surface acoustic wave device 00 and improve the isolation degree of the surface acoustic wave device 00.
[0061] Optional, see reference Figure 4 The first region A1 includes at least two first filters 10 and at least two first grounding traces G1 corresponding to each first filter 10. The second region A2 includes at least two second filters 20 and at least two second grounding traces G2 corresponding to each second filter 20. Both the first and second filters electrically connected to the same first bridging trace are receiving filters. Specifically, when the surface acoustic wave device 00 is a multiplexer, the first filter 10 and the second filter 20 electrically connected to the same first bridging trace B1 can also both be receiving filters TX, which can similarly improve the noise suppression and isolation of the surface acoustic wave device 00.
[0062] Optional, see reference Figure 2 The first filter 10 includes at least a first series resonator S1, a second series resonator S2, a third series resonator S3, a fourth series resonator S4, a first parallel resonator P1, a second parallel resonator P2, a third parallel resonator P3, and a fourth parallel resonator P4. Each series resonator (i.e., S1, S2, S3, and S4) has a first connecting trace C1 at both ends. The first series resonator S1, the second series resonator S2, the third series resonator S3, and the fourth series resonator S4 are connected in series between the receiving end and the transmitting end of the first filter 10 through each first connecting trace C1. The first end of the first parallel resonator P1 is electrically connected to the first series resonator S1 and the second series resonator S4. The first connection trace C1 between the parallel resonators S2, the first end of the second parallel resonator P2 is electrically connected to the first connection trace C1 between the second series resonator S2 and the third series resonator S3, the first end of the third parallel resonator P3 is electrically connected to the first connection trace C1 between the third series resonator S3 and the fourth series resonator S4, and the first end of the fourth parallel resonator P4 is electrically connected to the first connection trace C1 on the side of the fourth series resonator S4 away from the third series resonator S3; the second ends of the first parallel resonator P1, the second end of the second parallel resonator P2, the second end of the third parallel resonator P3 and the second end of the fourth parallel resonator P4 are all electrically connected to the first grounding network G1.
[0063] Specifically, the first filter 10 can be a trapezoidal structure, wherein the first series resonator S1, the second series resonator S2, the third series resonator S3, and the fourth series resonator S4 are connected in series between the input and output terminals of the first filter 10. Furthermore, the first connection trace C1 between the first series resonator S1 and the second series resonator S2 is electrically connected to the first grounding network G1 through the first parallel resonator P1; the first connection trace C1 between the second series resonator S2 and the third series resonator S3 is electrically connected to the first grounding network G1 through the second parallel resonator P2; and the first connection trace C1 between the third series resonator S3 and the fourth series resonator S4 is electrically connected to the first grounding network G1 through the third parallel resonator P3. The first grounding network G1 can be electrically connected to a second grounding network G2 in the second region A2 through the first bridging trace B1.
[0064] For example, it is preferable to set the grounding network connected to the parallel resonator in the middle to be electrically connected to the first bridging trace B1. In this way, the first bridging trace B1 can cross the first connecting trace C1 located in the middle position. Tests have shown that the surface acoustic wave device 00 has the best isolation effect when the above-mentioned trace setting is adopted.
[0065] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 2 The second filter 20 includes at least a fifth series resonator S5, a sixth series resonator S6, a seventh series resonator S7, an eighth series resonator S8, a fifth parallel resonator P5, a sixth parallel resonator P6, and a seventh parallel resonator P7. Each series resonator (S5, S6, S7, and S8) of the second filter 20 has a second connection trace C2 at both ends. The fifth series resonator S5, the sixth series resonator S6, the seventh series resonator S7, and the eighth series resonator S8 are connected in series between the input and output terminals of the second filter 20 through each of the second connection traces C2. The first end of the fifth parallel resonator P5 is electrically connected to the second connection line C2 between the fifth series resonator S5 and the sixth series resonator S6. The first end of the sixth parallel resonator P6 is electrically connected to the second connection line C2 between the sixth series resonator S6 and the seventh series resonator S7. The first end of the seventh parallel resonator P7 is electrically connected to the second connection line C2 between the seventh series resonator S7 and the eighth series resonator S8. The second ends of the fifth parallel resonator P5, the sixth parallel resonator P6, and the seventh parallel resonator P7 are all electrically connected to the second grounding network G2.
[0066] Specifically, the second filter 20 can also be a trapezoidal structure, wherein the fifth series resonator S5, the sixth series resonator S6, the seventh series resonator S7, and the eighth series resonator S8 are connected in series between the input and output terminals of the second filter 20. Furthermore, the second connection trace C2 between the fifth series resonator S5 and the sixth series resonator S6 is electrically connected to the second grounding network G2 through the fifth parallel resonator P5, and the second connection trace C2 between the sixth series resonator S6 and the seventh series resonator S7 is electrically connected to the second grounding network G2 through the sixth parallel resonator P6. The second grounding network G2 can be electrically connected to a first grounding network G1 in the first region A1 through the first bridging trace B1.
[0067] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 2 The first crossover route B1 crosses one of the first connecting routes C1, and the first crossover route B1 is isolated from the crossover first connecting route C1 by a crossover bridge; and / or, the first crossover route B1 crosses one of the second connecting routes C2, and the first crossover route B1 is isolated from the crossover second connecting route C2 by a crossover bridge.
[0068] Specifically, Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the bridging layer structure of a surface acoustic wave device provided in an embodiment of the present invention, in conjunction with reference to the reference. Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, at least a first filter 10 can be formed on wafer L1 first. Figure 7 (not shown in the image), second filter 20 ( Figure 7 The filter circuit layer L2 (not shown) of the first ground network G1 and the second ground network G2 is formed. Then, an insulating layer L3 is formed on the side of the filter circuit layer away from the wafer. The insulating layer is then patterned so that the insulating layer L3 at least covers each of the first connection traces C1. Then, a bridging trace layer is formed on the side of the insulating layer C1 away from the wafer. The bridging layer is patterned to form a first bridging trace B1, so that the first bridging trace B1 can not only connect the first ground network G1 and the second ground network G2, but also cross one of the first connection traces C1 in the first filter and one of the second connection traces C2 in the second filter. In this way, the isolation of the surface acoustic wave device 00 can be further improved.
[0069] In other feasible embodiments of the present invention, the first bridging trace B1 may be configured to cross only one first connecting trace C1, or only one second connecting trace C2. The embodiments of the present invention do not specifically limit this.
[0070] For example, it is preferable to configure the first grounding network G1 connected to the middle parallel resonator in the first filter 10 to be electrically connected to the first bridging trace B1, so that the first bridging trace B1 can cross the first connecting trace C1 located in the middle position, for example. Figure 2 In the second filter 20, the first grounding network G1 between the second parallel resonator P2 and the third parallel resonator P3 is electrically connected to the first bridging trace B1. This first grounding network G1 is then connected to the first connecting trace C1 between the second series resonator S2 and the third series resonator S3. Similarly, it is preferable to connect the second grounding network G2, which is connected to the middle parallel resonator in the second filter 20, to the first bridging trace B1. In this way, the first bridging trace B1 can cross the second connecting trace C2 located in the middle position. Tests show that the surface acoustic wave device 00 achieves the best isolation effect when the above wiring configuration is used.
[0071] Optional, refer to the reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second filter 20 includes at least: a ninth series resonator S9, a tenth series resonator S10, an eleventh series resonator S11, a DMS resonator 21, an eighth parallel resonator P8, and a ninth parallel resonator P9; both ends of the ninth series resonator S9, the DMS resonator 21, the tenth series resonator S10, and the eleventh series resonator S11 are provided with a third connecting trace C3; the ninth series resonator S9, the DMS resonator 21, the tenth series resonator S10, and the eleventh series resonator S11 are connected by a third connecting trace C3. The connecting trace C3 is connected in series between the receiving end and the transmitting end of the second filter 20; the first end of the eighth parallel resonator P8 is electrically connected to the third connecting trace C3 between the ninth series resonator S9 and the DMS resonator 21; the first end of the ninth parallel resonator P9 is electrically connected to the third connecting trace C3 between the tenth series resonator S10 and the eleventh series resonator S11; the second ends of the DMS resonator 21, the eighth parallel resonator P8, and the ninth parallel resonator P9 are all electrically connected to the second grounding network G2.
[0072] Specifically, the second filter 20 may include a filter with a DMS structure. Figure 5 and Figure 6 This illustration only demonstrates one DMS structure filter. In other feasible embodiments of the present invention, the DMS structure filter can take other forms, and the embodiments of the present invention do not specifically limit these forms. Specifically, the ninth series resonator S9, the DMS resonator 21, the tenth series resonator S10, and the eleventh series resonator S11 are connected in series between the receiving end and the transmitting end of the second filter 20. The third connection trace C3 between the ninth series resonator S9 and the DMS resonator 21 can be electrically connected to the second grounding network G2 through the eighth parallel resonator P8. The third connection trace C3 between the tenth series resonator S10 and the eleventh series resonator S11 can be electrically connected to the second grounding network G2 through the ninth parallel resonator P9. Additionally, the end of the DMS resonator 21 without the third connection trace C3 can be electrically connected to the second grounding network G2.
[0073] For example, when the second filter 20 is a filter with a DMS structure, it can be a receiving filter.
[0074] in addition, Figure 5 and Figure 6 The example shown is merely an illustration of a case where a trapezoidal filter and a DMS filter share a common ground via a jumper trace. Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the circuit structure of another surface acoustic wave device provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

Each of the twelfth series resonator S12, DMS resonator 11, thirteenth series resonator S13, and fourteenth series resonator S14 has a fourth connecting trace C4 at both ends. The twelfth series resonator S12, DMS resonator 11, thirteenth series resonator S13, and fourteenth series resonator S14 are connected in series between the receiver and transmitter of the first filter 10 via the fourth connecting trace C4. The first terminal of the tenth parallel resonator P10 is electrically connected to the fourth connection trace C4 between the twelfth series resonator S12 and the DMS resonator 11. The first terminal of the eleventh parallel resonator P11 is electrically connected to the fourth connection trace C4 between the DMS resonator 11 and the thirteenth series resonator S13. The first terminal of the twelfth parallel resonator P12 is electrically connected to the fourth connection trace C4 between the thirteenth series resonator S13 and the fourteenth series resonator S14. This allows two DMS structure filters to share a common ground via a bridging trace, making both DMS structure filters receiver filters.
