[0053] The circuit performance parameters are shown in Table 2:
[0054] Table 2 Circuit performance parameters
[0055]
[0056] The existing circuit of 30MHz~2500MHz low insertion loss electronically tunable filter is as follows Figure 7 As shown, the insertion loss of the conventional 30MHz~2500MHz electronically tunable filter cannot be less than or equal to 5dB at 1GHz~2.5GHz, which greatly reduces the sensitivity of the filter.
[0057] The circuit in the utility model connects two inductors in parallel (such as Fig. 9 ), while ensuring the filter performance, the filter conversion frequency is extended to 2.5GHz, and the entire section of 30MH~2500MHz maintains low insertion loss.
[0058] The prepared electrically tunable filter has the following effects:
[0059] The PCB circuit board uses a large number of grounding through holes to increase the grounding effect, and the filter arranged on the PCB circuit board adopts a left-right symmetrical layout, so that the parasitic capacitance and inductance generated by the left and right pads are equal, which is convenient for the later product manufacturing; the other specific effects are as follows:
[0060] 1. Divide the 30-2500MHz frequency band into 7 filters (30-90MHz, 90-225MHz, 225-650MHz, 650-1200MHz, 1200-1650MHz, 1650-2100MHz, 2100-2500MHz);
[0061] 2. Use hollow coils to make inductors in the high frequency bands of 225-650MHz, 650-1200MHz, 1200-1650MHz, 1650-2100MHz, and 2100-2500MHz to improve the Q value of the product. The larger the Q value, the better the product indicators; at the same time, it saves size and cost;
[0062] 3. 30~90MHz, 90~225MHz need to remove a large amount of inductance, which requires the use of a magnetic core;
[0063] 4. The product is small in size, with 6 layers. The first layer uses 50 ohm microstrip line and the third layer uses 50 ohm strip line to reduce the connection loss between the RF port of the RF switch and the filter input / output. Especially for the high frequency part (1000-2500MHz), 50 ohm RF line must be used for connection, otherwise it will have a great impact on various product indicators and will not be able to achieve the indicators.
[0064] 5. For filters in the frequency bands of 1650-2100MHz and 2100-2500MHz, hollow coil inductors are connected in parallel to reduce the inductance, so that the filter frequency reaches 2100MHz and 2500MHz;
[0065] 6. High Q varactor diode (Q value 4500) is used for 1650~2100MHz and 2100~2500MHz;
[0066] 7. Use low-loss RF switches, with an average loss of 0.4dB, an average isolation of 31dB, and an average standing wave ratio of 1.1. This indicator has little effect on the filter and can improve the overall performance;
[0067] 8. The PCB base is connected to the metal shell to shield external interference and reduce the size of the product.
[0068] like Fig.10 As shown, the test fixture welds the ETC filter on the pad, which can perform reliable and stable tests on the newly customized ETC filter. The data test is accurate, and the pins are fixed by welding. After the test, the welding points are loosened by a welding gun or other methods without damaging the pins. The test fixture is used to directly weld the ground pins to the pad, without using the bottom of the product, thereby avoiding affecting the product's bottom due to welding and grounding during the ground pin test. The following problems in the prior art of using a connecting cable to connect the power supply end and the RF end for testing are effectively solved:
[0069] 1) Too many wires are connected, which can easily lead to errors and poor test accuracy;
[0070] 2) There is a risk of tearing off the product pins;
[0071] 3) The RF line connecting RFin and RFout needs to be grounded. If the test tooling is not used, the bottom of the product will be grounded, which will affect the product appearance and most of the tin left, affecting the customer's use function.
[0072] In order to quickly position the electronically tunable filter, a limit indication frame is drawn in the middle of the PCB board. The limit indication frame is larger than the electronically tunable filter. Multiple welding pads corresponding to the pins of the electronically tunable filter are arranged on the left and right sides of the limit indication frame (11 on each side, 22 in total). The electronically tunable filter can be quickly limited through the limit indication frame, and then the terminals can be quickly welded, thereby improving welding efficiency and testing efficiency.
[0073] In order to avoid shaking during the welding process of the electronically tunable filter, two rows of limit rolling pins are symmetrically arranged on the front and back sides of the upper surface of the above-mentioned PCB board (the limit indication frame and the limit rolling pins are tangent to the outside). There are four limit rolling pins in the two rows, which are symmetrical front and back and left and right. The two rows of limit rolling pins can limit the front and rear ends of the electronically tunable filter. When in use, the electronically tunable filter is quickly placed in the two rows of limit rolling pins and moved left and right to the corresponding welding pads of the terminals. Before welding, it plays a role in quick positioning, and during welding, shaking is avoided, making welding more stable and reliable.
[0074] Principle of use of test tooling:
[0075] 1. Solder and fix the two RF wires separately. Fig. 9 At the "RFin" and "RFout" pins in the PCB;
[0076] 2. Align the pins 1 to 22 of the tested ESC filter with the soldering pads on the test fixture, and then fix the pins 1 to 22 with lead tin wire Sn40 / Pb60, 0.5mm;
[0077] 3. Connect the "RFin" RF line to the output port of the network analyzer, and the "RFout" RF line to the input port of the network analyzer;
