DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The preferred structure and implementation method of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a high-Q value miniaturized IPD bandpass filter chip, which works in the 5G communication band and is different from the conventional thin-film IPD filter structure, including: mainly composed of a circuit layer, a grounding ring surrounding the circuit layer and a glass dielectric substrate, and the circuit layer and the grounding ring surrounding the circuit layer are placed on the glass dielectric substrate. The circuit layer includes an input port, an output port and a capacitor-inductor resonator network connecting the two; The capacitor-inductor resonator network includes: five groups of capacitor-inductor resonators, the five groups of capacitor-inductor resonators form a p-type connection structure, the third resonator in the five groups of capacitor-inductor resonators serves as the center of the p-type connection structure, the second resonator and the fourth resonator in the five groups of capacitor-inductor resonators connect the two ends of the center of the p-type connection structure, the first resonator is connected to the input port of the chip, and the fifth resonator is connected to the output port of the chip.

[0020] In the embodiment of the present invention, each resonator includes an LC parallel resonant structure, an LC series resonant structure, a plurality of series capacitors, and a plurality of parallel ground capacitors. The LC parallel resonant structure and the LC series resonant structure introduce a transmission zero point in the stop band, and by adjusting the inductance value and the capacitance value in the resonant structure, the position of the transmission zero point in the stop band is changed to achieve higher out-of-band suppression.

[0021] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first resonator includes a first capacitor C1, a second capacitor C2 and a first inductor L1. The first capacitor C1 and the first inductor L1 form a first LC parallel resonant structure, one end of which is connected to the input port of the chip as the input end of the first resonator, and the other end is connected to the second capacitor C2. The other end of the second capacitor C2 is the output end of the first resonator. The first capacitor C1 and the first inductor L1 connected in parallel form a resonant circuit, and a zero point is generated at the high frequency 7.78GHz outside the passband, thereby improving the selectivity of the filter.

[0022] The second resonator includes a third capacitor C3, a fourth capacitor C4 and a second inductor L2. The third capacitor C3 and the second inductor L2 form a second LC series resonant structure that is grounded. The fourth capacitor C4 is a grounded capacitor. The two ends of the second LC series resonant structure are connected in parallel to the two ends of the fourth capacitor C4. The third capacitor C3 and the second inductor L2 that are connected in series to ground in the second resonator are used to generate a zero point at the 3.56GHz position outside the passband, thereby improving the low-frequency suppression capability outside the band.

[0023] The third resonator includes a fifth capacitor C5, a sixth capacitor C6, a seventh capacitor C7 and a third inductor L3, one end of the fifth capacitor C5 is the input end of the third resonator, and the other end is connected to one end of a third LC parallel resonant structure composed of the sixth capacitor C6 and the third inductor L3, the other end of the third LC parallel resonant structure is connected to the seventh capacitor C7, and the other end of the seventh capacitor C7 is the output end of the third resonator.

[0025] The fifth resonator includes a tenth capacitor C10, an eleventh capacitor C11 and a fifth inductor L5, one end of the tenth capacitor C10 is the input end of the fifth resonator, and the other end is connected to a fifth LC parallel resonant structure composed of the eleventh capacitor C11 and the fifth inductor L5, and the other end of the fifth LC parallel resonant structure is the output end of the fifth resonator and is connected to the output port of the chip. The eleventh capacitor C11 and the fifth inductor L5 connected in parallel form a resonant circuit, generating a zero point at a high frequency of 7.78 GHz outside the passband, thereby improving the selectivity of the filter.

[0026] The input port of the chip is used for inputting voltage and current signals, and is connected to the input end of the first resonator; the output port of the chip is used for outputting voltage and current signals filtered by the capacitor and inductor resonator network, and is connected to the output end of the fifth resonator; the input port and the output port both adopt a GSG structure, that is, a ground-signal-ground structure. Example 2

[0027] This embodiment has the same basic connection method as Embodiment 1, except that the p-type connection structure formed by the five groups of capacitors and inductors is a symmetrical structure with symmetric position. As an example, the third resonator in the five groups of capacitors and inductors is the center of the p-type connection structure, the fifth capacitor C5 and the seventh capacitor C7 of the third resonator are axially symmetrical, the first resonator at the input port and the fifth resonator at the output port are axially symmetrical, the second resonator connected in parallel between the first resonator and the third resonator and the fourth resonator connected in parallel between the third resonator and the fifth resonator are axially symmetrical. This symmetry does not require that the detailed structures of each component are completely consistent. For example, in this symmetrical design, the parameter values ​​of the components can be the same or different. Figure 1 For example, the inductance values ​​of L1 and L5 are equal, the capacitance values ​​of C1 and C11 are equal, the inductance values ​​of L2 and L4 are equal, the capacitance values ​​of C3 and C8 are equal, and the capacitance values ​​of C5 and C7 can be equal or unequal. The first capacitor C1, the first inductor L1 and the sixth capacitor C6, the third inductor L3, the eleventh capacitor C11 and the fifth inductor L5 form three LC parallel resonance units, which can generate three zero points outside the high frequency band; and the third capacitor C3, the second inductor L2, the eighth capacitor C8 and the fourth inductor L4 form two LC series resonance units, which can generate two more zero points outside the low frequency band; that is, the introduction of multiple zero points further enhances the stopband suppression of the bandpass filter. Example 3

[0028] The basic connection method of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 2, except that: Figure 1The parameter settings of each component in the circuit schematic shown are as follows: L1=0.65nH, L2=1.2nH, L3=1.2nH, L4=1.2nH, L5=0.65nH, C1=0.644pF, C2=0.765pF, C3=1.67pF, C4=1.3pF, C5=0.57pF, C6=0.4pF, C7=0.57pF, C8=1.67pF, C9=1.3pF, C10=0.765pF, C11=0.644pF. Example 4

[0029] The basic connection method of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1, except that Figure 2 When laying out components, in order to reduce the resistance loss of the circuit, the length of the transmission line needs to be shortened as much as possible. To this end, for the fourth capacitor C4 and the ninth capacitor C9, since their ground connection lines are long, which may cause transmission line loss and parasitic effects, the ground connection lines of the two capacitors are interconnected and the width of the connection line is increased, which can effectively reduce the transmission line loss and improve the overall performance of the circuit.

[0030] exist Figure 2In the chip integrated circuit layout shown, the first inductor L1 is a thick copper plane inductor with an inner diameter of 350μm*430μm, a width of 100μm, and one turn; the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 are two square MIM capacitors with widths of 90μm and 85μm respectively; the second inductor L2 is a thick copper plane inductor with an inner diameter of 200μm*150μm, a width and a line spacing of 50μm, and two turns; the third capacitor C3 and the fourth capacitor C4 are two square MIM capacitors with widths of 115μm and 80μm respectively; the third inductor L3 is a thick copper plane inductor with an inner diameter of 220μm*180μm, a width and a line spacing of 50μm, and two turns; the fifth capacitor C5 is a square MIM capacitor of 80μm, and the sixth capacitor C6 is a MIM capacitor of 100μm. The first and seventh capacitors are two square MIM capacitors with a width of 64μm; the fourth inductor L4 is a thick copper plane inductor with an inner diameter of 200μm*150μm, a width and line spacing of 50μm, and two turns; the eighth capacitor C8 and the ninth capacitor C9 are two square MIM capacitors with widths of 115μm and 80μm respectively; the fifth inductor L5 is a thick copper plane inductor with an inner diameter of 350μm*430μm, a width of 100μm, and one turn; the tenth capacitor C10 and the eleventh capacitor C11 are two square MIM capacitors with widths of 90μm and 85μm respectively; the periphery of the chip is a rectangular frame grounding metal with a width of 280μm from top to bottom and 230μm from left to right, and there is a GSG signal input and output port on the left and right sides. During the probe station test, the grounding port (G port) is connected to the peripheral grounding metal, and the signal port (S port) is connected to a rectangular metal disk with a length of 200μm and a width of 230μm on each side. Due to the miniaturization advantage of IPD process, the size of the entire chip can be as small as 3.2mm*2mm. Example 5

[0031] The basic connection method of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1, except that the IPD bandpass filter chip is suitable for the frequency range between 5GHz and 13GHz, the inductance value of each resonator is between 0.1nH and 10nH, and the capacitance value is between 0.1pF and 10pF. The resonant frequency is controlled by adjusting the value of the capacitor and inductance in each resonator, thereby adjusting the filtering performance of the filter. For the IPD process, adjusting the value of the capacitor and inductor is achieved by changing the number of turns, line width, inner diameter, line spacing of the inductor and changing the length and width of the capacitor.

[0032] like Figure 2In the integrated circuit layout of the high-Q miniaturized IPD bandpass filter of the embodiment of the present invention shown, the thick copper inductor uses thick copper as the coil material, with a thickness of 50μm and a width between 50μm and 100μm. Compared with the traditional metal spiral inductor, the electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity of the device are improved, thereby improving the Q value and reliability of the device and reducing circuit losses.

[0033] contrast Figure 5 The traditional spiral inductor Q value curve shown in Figure 6 As shown in the Q value curve of thick copper inductor, the Q value of spiral inductor is about 30, and the Q value of thick copper inductor is as high as more than 100, which greatly improves the inductor Q value. Example 6

[0034] The basic connection method of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1, except that Figure 7 As shown, it is an electromagnetic simulation result diagram of the high Q value miniaturized IPD bandpass filter chip integrated circuit layout of the embodiment of the present invention. Among them, |S11| is the first port return loss of the high Q value miniaturized IPD bandpass filter chip, and |S21| is the insertion loss between the first port and the second port of the high Q value miniaturized IPD bandpass filter chip.

[0035] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, within the 5-6 GHz passband frequency band, the insertion loss is better than 1.8 dB, the in-band return loss is better than -15 dB, and the in-band impedance matching is good. The transmission zero point on the left side of the passband is at 2.72 GHz and 4.39 GHz, and the corresponding suppression levels are -67 dB and -31 dB, respectively. The transmission zero point on the right side of the passband is at 6.64 GHz and 9 GHz, and the corresponding suppression levels are -48 dB and -63 dB, respectively. The suppression effect is very good. Example 7

[0036] This embodiment has the same basic connection method as that of Embodiment 1, except that, on the substrate, a closed grounded metal frame is provided around the IPD filter chip, and the grounded metal frame connects the ground ends of the input port and the output port of the chip, as well as the ground ends of the second resonator and the fourth resonator. In the embodiment of the present invention, the rectangular grounded metal frame is only an example, and in fact, grounded metal frames of other shapes can be used to meet different design requirements. In order to effectively reduce the influence of mutual crosstalk between grounding points, the width of the peripheral grounding ring is increased in the design. In addition, it is also possible to choose not to set a closed grounded metal frame, but to set grounding holes at the positions where grounding is required, and these grounding holes are directly connected to the metal grounding layer on the back of the substrate.

[0037] The present invention provides a high-Q value miniaturized IPD bandpass filter chip and device, each parallel resonance unit can generate a zero point outside the high frequency band, each series resonance unit can generate a zero point outside the low frequency band, and the introduction of multiple zero points can improve the stopband suppression of the bandpass filter; the capacitor adopts MIM flat capacitor, which is processed by thin film deposition technology to achieve high integration and miniaturization, thereby effectively reducing the size of the filter; the inductor element and the circuit are formed by depositing thick metal material on the substrate, which increases the thickness and width of the inductor, solves the practical problem of low Q value of traditional planar IPD inductor, improves the filtering function of the filter, and reduces circuit loss.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
