[0038] Example 1

[0039] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the dielectric film includes a first dielectric film 1, a second dielectric film 3 and a third dielectric film 5, and the plurality of groups of electrodes include a first electrode 2, a second electrode 4 and a third electrode 6, which are distributed at an angle of 120 degrees. The length, width and shape characteristics of the first electrode 2, the second electrode 4 and the third electrode 6 may be different due to different device frequency characteristics. The two edges of the first electrode 2, the second electrode 4 and the third electrode 6 are flush with the edges of the first dielectric film 1, the second dielectric film 3 and the third dielectric film 5 respectively. The size of the ferrite sheet 7 is flush with the edges of the first dielectric film 1, the second dielectric film 3 and the third dielectric film 5, that is, flush with the laminated thin film electrode. The edge of the ferrite sheet 7 is punched, and a metallized via 9 is made at each punched position. The metallized via 9 corresponds to the end position of each group of electrodes one by one and is connected after welding.

[0040] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment utilizes PCB lamination technology to press the first electrode 2, the second electrode 4, and the third electrode 6 together through the first dielectric film 1, the second dielectric film 3, and the third dielectric film 5, respectively, and are distributed at an angle of 120 degrees. The electrodes are electrically insulated by the dielectric film. The length, width, and shape characteristics of the electrodes may be different depending on the frequency characteristics of the device. There are six endpoints at both ends of the three electrodes.

[0041] like Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, the ferrite sheet 7 is punched, electrodes are made on both sides and interconnected through metallized holes. In this embodiment, the ferrite sheet 7 is made of gyromagnetic ferrite, and its saturation magnetic moment is several hundred to one thousand eight hundred gauss, depending on the selection of different frequency devices. The six pad holes of the electrode correspond to the six end positions of the thin film electrode one by one, and are connected after welding; Figure 4 As shown, the thin film electrode and the electrode on the ferrite surface are welded together to form a combination, namely, a thin film ferrite assembly 11.

[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, the thin film ferrite component 11 is the core component of the lumped parameter ring spacer and is mounted on the ring spacer cavity PCB substrate 12, connected to the PCB circuit, and the PCB circuit provides a matching network to form a complete device.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] like Figure 6-Figure 8 As shown, the present embodiment provides a bowl-shaped (i.e., conductive sidewall) laminated thin film electrode ferrite component with vias, an annular dielectric epitaxial ring 10 is arranged on the outside of the ferrite sheet 7, and the annular dielectric cavity of the annular dielectric epitaxial ring 10 is embedded with a single-sided metallized ferrite sheet 7, the size of the annular dielectric epitaxial ring 10 is flush with the thin film electrode, there are six and a half holes on the edge, and metallized vias 9 are arranged inside, the positions of the metallized vias 9 correspond one-to-one to the end points of each group of electrodes, and they are connected after welding. Other technical features are the same as those in Example 1.

[0045] In this embodiment, the structure of the thin film electrode is the same as that of Embodiment 1. Embodiment 2 adds a circle of dielectric epitaxy to the ferrite electrode layer, and makes six metallized vias 9 in this epitaxial ring to form upper and lower interconnections. The metallized vias 9 of Embodiment 1 are made at the edge of the ferrite sheet, and the processing methods and costs of the two are different.

[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, by using the PCB lamination process, the first electrode 2, the second electrode 4, and the third electrode 6 are pressed together through the first dielectric film 1, the second dielectric film 3, and the third dielectric film 5, respectively, and are distributed at an angle of 120 degrees. The electrodes are electrically insulated by the dielectric film. The length, width, and shape characteristics of the electrodes can be different depending on the frequency characteristics of the device. There are six endpoints at both ends of the three electrodes; the size of the annular dielectric epitaxial ring 10 is flush with the upper thin film electrode, and there are six half holes on the edge. The inside is metallized, and the position of the metallized hole corresponds to the six endpoints of the upper surface thin film electrode one by one. After welding, they are connected, and six pads are exposed at the bottom of the annular dielectric.

[0047] like Figure 7 As shown, a single-sided metallized ferrite sheet 7 is embedded in the annular dielectric cavity, with the metallized surface facing outward. In this embodiment, the ferrite sheet 7 is a gyromagnetic ferrite, and its saturation magnetic moment is several hundred to one thousand eight hundred gauss, which is selected according to different frequency devices.

[0048] like Figure 8 As shown, the thin film electrode, the conductive through-hole medium on the side wall of the annular belt, and the ferrite sheet 7 together constitute the core component of the lumped ring spacer, which is mounted on the PCB substrate 12 of the ring spacer cavity. The six solder joints at the bottom of the component are interconnected with the corresponding electrodes on the PCB and connected to the PCB circuit. The PCB circuit provides a matching network to form a complete device.

[0049] Example 3

[0050] like Figure 9-11 As shown, this embodiment provides a pressed bowl-shaped laminated thin film electrode ferrite component. Compared with Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, the length and width dimensions of the first electrode 2, the second electrode 4 and the third electrode 6 are slightly larger than the first dielectric film 1, the second dielectric film 3 and the third dielectric film 5 by about 0.5-1 mm. The portion of each electrode that exceeds the dielectric film is used for pressing and folding, that is, the connecting structure in this embodiment is the edge of the thin film motor.

[0051] Compared with Example 1 and Example 2, both Example 1 and Example 2 have metallized vias. This embodiment uses vacuum pressing to interconnect the six ports of the thin film electrode with the underlying PCB board through deformation and bending. Different structures are suitable for different batch production modes.

[0052] like Fig. 9 , Fig.11 As shown, the PCB lamination process is used to press the first electrode 2, the second electrode 4, and the third electrode 6 shown in the figure together through the first dielectric film 1, the second dielectric film 3, and the third dielectric film 5, respectively, and they are distributed at an angle of 120 degrees; the electrodes are electrically insulated by the dielectric film, and the length, width, and shape characteristics of the electrodes can be different depending on the frequency characteristics of the device. The entire electrode is a laminated planar structure. The length and width of the thin film electrode is slightly about 0.5-1mm larger than the size of the ferrite sheet, and the excess part is used for pressing and folding, and the bottom surface of the ferrite sheet 7 is metallized to form a metallized layer 8 at the bottom of the ferrite sheet. The thin film electrode and the non-metallized surface of the ferrite electrode are bonded together to form a combination, and the centers of the two are aligned and the edges are parallel. Since the thin film electrode is larger than the ferrite, the edge of the thin film electrode protrudes from the ferrite. The combination is the core component of the lumped parameter ring spacer and is mounted on the PCB substrate 12 of the ring spacer cavity.

[0053] like Fig.10 As shown, the PCB assembly is covered with a film and evacuated. Under the action of air pressure, the protruding ferrite electrode is subjected to pressure, deformed and bent, and tightly attached to the PCB substrate 12. The six ports of the film electrode correspond one by one to the positions of the electrodes (covered with the solder layer) on the PCB and are pressed tightly under the action of air pressure.

[0054] like Fig.11As shown, the electrodes of the thin film ferrite component 11 are interconnected with the lower PCB through a welding process, and the corresponding matching inductance and capacitance are connected at each electrode port to achieve device performance.

[0055] Simulation Example

[0056] The thin film laminated ferrite components 11 of Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3 are mounted on a PCB substrate 12 and interconnected with the matching circuit on the PCB to form a complete device, such as Fig.12 Figure 2 shows a simulation example of a 2.1 GHz isolator.

[0057] The simulation example uses 2.5*2.0*0.25mm 3 The ferrite is embedded in a bowl-shaped laminated thin-film electrode with an epitaxial size of 3.2*2.7. The three output stage ports are connected in parallel with a 1.6pF capacitor to the ground. The simulation performance shows that the transmission loss from end 1 to end 2 of the device is less than 0.6dB, and the isolation from end 2 to end 1 is greater than 20dB in the passband. The echoes at the three ports are very small, and the device shows excellent performance.

[0058] This device has low loss and high isolation characteristics near the 2.1GHZ frequency, and is compact in size, making it convenient for use in 4G and 5G communication base stations.
