Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of phased array radar, and in particular to a miniaturized multi-channel phased array SiP module. Background Art
[0002] Globally, the progress of defense technology is driving the integration and miniaturization of multi-functional systems such as radar, communication, and electronic warfare. The phased array SiP module, as the core component of the active phased array radar system, is of great significance for enhancing the flexibility and multi-functionality of the radar system. Modern active phased array radar technology can plan different regions to complete different functions simultaneously, and can also enable all components of the entire array to complete multiple tasks at different times, which is an important technology for improving the combat capabilities of airborne radars and developing new radars integrating multiple functions.
[0003] With the evolution of the global military strategy, the future development of phased array radar technology will be integrated into a new generation of combat platforms, giving rise to various new radar system structures. For missile-borne and airborne platforms, miniaturization, lightweight, and the ability to adapt to more complex environments are the key directions for the development of phased array radar technology. Currently, the design of phased array SiP modules mainly relies on the high-temperature co-fired ceramic (HTCC) process. Compared with the traditional printed circuit board (PCB) process, this process has lower losses and better heat dissipation performance, and can also integrate more discrete devices based on specific material properties. However, with the development of phased array radar technology, the increase in the number of channels has led to an increase in the system volume, which is in opposition to the requirement for module miniaturization in applications. Therefore, improving the integration level has become a necessary way to meet the miniaturization requirements. Summary of the Invention

A plurality of fourth BGA interconnection structures are formed on the upper surface of the third SiP cavity module. After the third BGA interconnection structure is connected to the fourth BGA interconnection structure, the second SiP cavity module and the third SiP cavity module are connected together.
[0008] A further technical solution lies in that: the first SiP cavity module includes a first HTCC substrate. The AiP antennas are arranged in an array on the upper surface of the first HTCC substrate. The lower surface of the first HTCC substrate is divided into four identical regions.

The AiP antennas are connected to the first bi-directional amplifier chips and the power modulation chip through the internal leads of the first HTCC substrate. The first bi-directional amplifier chips and the power modulation chip are connected to the first BGA interconnection structures through the internal leads of the first HTCC substrate.

[0036] Working principle:
[0037] When the SiP module transmits signals, it accesses the link through four intermediate-frequency connectors 2-4 on the back of the second SiP cavity module 2. The radio-frequency signals complete the first frequency conversion and splitting with various chips in the third SiP cavity module 3 through the third BGA interconnection structure 2-3 and the fourth BGA interconnection structure 3-3.

The multi-functional chips 2-1 complete the splitting and adjust the phase of the signals according to the control instructions sent by the low-frequency control connectors 2-6 to complete the formation of the beam. The 64 signals in each multi-functional chip channel are correspondingly connected to each first bi-directional amplifier chip 1-3 in the first SiP cavity module 1. After supplementing the gain, they are fed to the AiP antenna 1-1, and the beam is radiated by the AiP antenna 1-1.
[0038] When the SiP module receives signals, the 64 signals received by the AiP antenna 1-1 are amplified by the first bi-directional amplifier chip 1-3 on the back of the first SiP cavity module 1, and then sent to 16 multi-functional chips 2-1 in the front cavity of the second SiP cavity module 2 through the first BGA interconnection structure 1-4 and the second BGA interconnection structure 2-2 to complete the combining and amplitude-phase modulation. Then, the 16 signals are sent to the third SiP module 3 in four quadrants through the third BGA interconnection structure 2-3 and the fourth BGA interconnection structure 3-3. After completing the down-conversion and combining by each chip in the third SiP module 3, the intermediate-frequency signals in the four quadrants flow through the fourth BGA interconnection structure 3-3 and the third BGA interconnection structure 2-3 and are output through the intermediate-frequency connectors 2-4 on the back of the second SiP module 2.
