[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0038] The existing microwave devices are developing towards the trends of light weight and miniaturization, resulting in the miniaturization of the microwave circuits in the microwave devices. Taking the vertical electrical connector as an example, the application of the vertical interconnection technology can not only effectively integrate multi-layer circuits, making the circuit structure more compact in space, but also efficiently transmit radio frequency signals to the circuits of different layers. However, the transmission of radio frequency signals between multi-layer circuit boards is discontinuous, and this discontinuity causes parasitic effects between the circuits, affecting the transmission performance of the circuits. The existing technology is to solve the problem that the impedance between multi-layer circuit boards is different, resulting in reflection of radio frequency signals, which further affects the transmission performance of the circuits. Therefore, how to provide an electrical connector that can avoid parasitic effects between circuits and avoid the influence on the circuit transmission performance is a technical problem that those skilled in the art urgently need to solve.

[0039] In the embodiments of the present utility model, by providing multi-section impedance matchers in the circuit structure of the electrical connector, and by providing series impedance matchers to match the characteristic impedance of the first circuit end and / or the second circuit end, the reflection of signals is reduced, and the transmission efficiency of the signals is improved. In addition, by additionally providing impedance matching stubs in the circuit structure of the electrical connector, the reflected waves generated by them are subtracted from the reflected waves on the main path, which can broaden the bandwidth range of the matched radio frequency signals and improve the signal transmission bandwidth of the electrical connector. Specifically, the following embodiments can be referred to:

[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1Schematic diagram of a circuit structure in an electrical connector provided by an embodiment of the present utility model. The circuit structure in the electrical connector may include:

[0041] A first circuit terminal electrically connected to a first external terminal, and a second circuit terminal electrically connected to a second external terminal;

[0042] A plurality of sections of impedance matchers are provided between the first circuit terminal and the second circuit terminal;

[0043] The impedance matcher includes at least one series impedance matcher connected in series in the circuit structure, and at least one impedance matching stub 25; one end of the impedance matching stub 25 is connected between the first circuit terminal and the second circuit terminal; the impedance matching stub 25 includes a short-circuit impedance matching stub and / or an open-circuit impedance matching stub.

[0044] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first circuit terminal and the second circuit terminal are not marked in Figure 1 These are the two ends where the circuit structure of the present application is electrically connected to the outside. When it is the circuit structure of an electrical connector, one of the first circuit terminal and the second circuit terminal serves as a signal input terminal, and the other serves as a signal output terminal. In this embodiment, a plurality of sections of impedance matchers are provided in the circuit structure, and it includes at least one series impedance matcher connected in series in the circuit structure, and at least one impedance matching stub 25 whose one end is connected in the circuit structure, and this impedance matching stub can be an open-circuit impedance matching stub or a short-circuit impedance matching stub.

[0045] It should be further noted that in this embodiment, the specific number of series impedance matchers provided in the circuit structure of this embodiment is not limited and can be set according to the actual circuit structure. For example, in the circuit structure of this embodiment, the series impedance matcher can be set to 1, or can also be set to 2, or can also be set to 3. Figure 1 For example, Figure 1 Two series impedance matchers are provided in, namely the first series impedance matcher 22 and the second series impedance matcher 23. Correspondingly, the specific number of impedance matching stubs 25 provided in the circuit structure of this embodiment is also not limited in this embodiment. For example, 1 impedance matching stub 25 can be provided in the circuit structure, or 2 impedance matching stubs 25 can be provided in the circuit structure, or 3 impedance matching stubs 25 can be provided in the circuit structure. The sum of the number of series impedance matchers and the number of impedance matching stubs 25 provided in this application is the specific number of the plurality of sections of impedance matchers provided in this embodiment. It can be foreseen that the total number of impedance matchers in this application is at least 2.

[0046] Refer to Figure 1, this embodiment further includes a first-layer metal ground 26. In this embodiment, a first ground clearance 31 is formed between the first series impedance matcher 22 and the first-layer metal ground 26, a second ground clearance 32 is formed between the second series impedance matcher 23 and the first-layer metal ground 26, and a fourth ground clearance 34 is formed between the impedance matching stub 25 and the first-layer metal ground 26. And in this embodiment, the circuit structure in the electrical connector is disposed on the first dielectric substrate 41.

[0047] In addition, in this embodiment, the impedance matching stub 25 can be set as an impedance matching stub with a short-circuit structure of a quarter dielectric wavelength, and the electrical connector is preferably set as a vertical electrical connector. The impedance matching stub with the short-circuit structure of the quarter dielectric wavelength can effectively match the radio frequency signals within a relatively wide bandwidth range, so that the bandwidth of the vertical electrical connector is significantly improved. Specifically, reference can be made to Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a response example diagram of the standing wave ratio varying with frequency provided by the embodiment of the present invention. Among them, the frequency unit is gigahertz (GHz), f0 is the center frequency. It can be seen from the figure that when the impedance matching stub with a short-circuit structure of a quarter dielectric wavelength is set, the standing wave ratio of the vertical electrical connector is less than 1.2, and at the center frequency f0, the bandwidth can reach 20%.

[0048] Further, in order to improve the convenience of setting the impedance matcher in the circuit structure, the above-mentioned impedance matching stub 25 can be set at at least one of the front end and the rear end of the whole of all the series impedance matchers.

[0049] It should be noted that in this embodiment, setting the impedance matching stub 25 at the front end or the rear end of all the series impedance matchers, or setting the impedance matching stub 25 at both the front end and the rear end of all the series impedance matchers, that is, setting the impedance matching stub 25 at both ends of all the series impedance matchers, can more effectively reduce the reflection of the signal during transmission. At the same time, setting the impedance matching stub 25 at both ends of the overall other impedance matchers can simplify the design and debugging process, reduce the complexity of achieving precise impedance matching, and improve the preparation convenience.

[0050] Further, in order to increase the frequency range of circuit structure matching and improve the signal transmission efficiency, the above-mentioned impedance matcher can include a plurality of series impedance matchers connected in series in the circuit structure.

[0051] It should be noted that in this embodiment, by setting a plurality of series impedance matchers connected in the circuit structure, the reflection and loss of the signal can be better controlled, thereby improving the signal transmission efficiency, and the multi-section impedance matching can increase the bandwidth of the system.

[0052] Further, in order to ensure the simplicity of preparation, the impedance matching stub 25 can be set as a short-circuit impedance matching stub;

[0053] One end of the short-circuit impedance matching stub is connected to the circuit at the front end or the back end of the whole series impedance matcher, and the other end of the short-circuit impedance matching stub is grounded.

[0054] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the impedance matching stub 25 is set as a short-circuit impedance matching stub. At the same time, one end of the short-circuit impedance matching stub is connected to the front end or the back end of the whole series impedance matcher, and the other end of the impedance matching stub is grounded to ensure the normal operation of the short-circuit impedance matching stub. In this embodiment, the short-circuit impedance matching stub is adopted. Since the structure is relatively simple, it is not easily affected by the outside, has good stability, and has fewer factors to be considered in the circuit design and preparation, and the design difficulty is relatively low.

[0055] Further, in order to reduce the radiation loss of the circuit, a coplanar waveguide 24 can be provided between the first circuit terminal and the second circuit terminal.

[0056] In this embodiment, the wiring of the circuit structure in the electrical connector is set as the coplanar waveguide 24. The structure is simple, which is convenient for integration with other microwave components, and has low broadband loss. At the same time, the characteristic impedance of the circuit can be changed by adjusting the distance between the signal conductor and the ground conductor, so as to better achieve impedance matching, and at the same time, it has strong anti-interference ability. As Figure 1 , a third distance from the ground 33 is formed between the coplanar waveguide 24 and the first-layer metal ground 26 in this embodiment. In addition, in this embodiment, the coplanar waveguide 24 can be preferably set as a 50-ohm coplanar line to match a conventional circuit.

[0057] Applying the circuit structure of the electrical connector provided by the embodiment of the present invention, it includes a first circuit terminal electrically connected to a first external terminal and a second circuit terminal electrically connected to a second external terminal. A plurality of impedance matchers are provided between the first circuit terminal and the second circuit terminal. The impedance matcher includes at least one series impedance matcher connected in series in the circuit structure and at least one impedance matching stub 25. One end of the impedance matching stub 25 is connected between the first circuit terminal and the second circuit terminal. The impedance matching stub 25 includes a short-circuit impedance matching stub and / or an open-circuit impedance matching stub. By providing a plurality of impedance matchers in the circuit structure of the electrical connector and setting a series impedance matcher to match the characteristic impedance of the first circuit terminal and / or the second circuit terminal, the signal reflection is reduced and the signal transmission efficiency is improved. In addition, by additionally providing an impedance matching stub 25 in the circuit structure of the electrical connector, the reflected wave generated by it is subtracted from the reflected wave on the main path, and the bandwidth range of the matched radio frequency signal can be broadened, and the signal transmission bandwidth of the electrical connector can be improved.

[0058] In addition, in the embodiment of the present utility model, by arranging the impedance matching stub 25 at both ends of the overall series impedance matcher, the reflection of the signal during transmission can be more effectively reduced. At the same time, by arranging the impedance matching stub 25 at both ends of other impedance matchers in the whole, the design and debugging processes can be simplified, the complexity of achieving precise impedance matching can be reduced, and the preparation convenience can be improved. By arranging multiple series impedance matchers connected in the circuit structure, the matching effect of the signal in the wide frequency band can be better controlled, thereby improving the signal transmission efficiency. The short-circuit impedance matching stub is adopted. Since the structure is relatively simple, it is not easily affected by the outside, has good stability, and fewer factors need to be considered during the circuit design and preparation, and the design difficulty is relatively low. The trace of the circuit structure in the electrical connector is arranged as a coplanar conductor 24, which has a simple structure, is convenient for integration with other microwave components, has low broadband loss, and at the same time, the characteristic impedance of the circuit can be changed by adjusting the distance between the signal conductor and the ground conductor, so as to better achieve impedance matching and has strong anti-interference ability.

[0059] Next, an electrical connector provided by the embodiment of the present utility model will be introduced. The electrical connector described below and the circuit structure in the electrical connector described above can be mutually referred to.

The third dielectric substrate 45 is arranged on the side of the second dielectric substrate 44 facing away from the first ground layer 28, and a second ground layer 46 is arranged on the side of the third dielectric substrate 45 facing away from the second dielectric substrate 44;

[0063] A second signal layer 43 is prepared on the side surface of the third dielectric substrate 45 close to the second dielectric substrate 44, or on the side surface of the second dielectric substrate 44 close to the third dielectric substrate 45;

[0064] The first signal layer includes the circuit structure in the electrical connector as described above;

[0065] The first signal layer is conductively connected to the second signal layer 43 through a conductive via 42.

In this embodiment of the electrical connector, the first signal layer is connected to the second signal layer 43 after cross-layer, realizing the vertical interconnection of the signal layers and the cross-layer transmission of signals. And by setting the circuit structure in the first signal layer as described above, an impedance matching structure can be correspondingly set in the second signal layer 43 to achieve impedance matching between the first signal layer and the second signal layer 43.

[0067] Further, in order to improve the effect of impedance matching, the first circuit terminal in the above-mentioned first signal layer is connected to the conductive via 42 through the first tapered impedance matcher 27;

[0068] The circuit structure in the second signal layer 43 is connected to the conductive via 42 through the second tapered impedance matcher.

It should be noted that the second tapered impedance matcher is not marked in the figure and is specifically located at the connection between the second signal layer 43 and the conductive via 42.

[0070] Further, in order to ensure the stability of the connection between circuit structures and improve the stability of signal transmission at the same time, the conductive via 42 can be connected to the first signal layer and the second signal layer 43 through pads.

[0071] In this embodiment, the conductive via 42 is connected to the first signal layer and the second signal layer 43 by pads, which can enhance the reliability of the structural connection, and at the same time can reduce the impedance change of the signal during transmission, thereby reducing signal reflection, reducing impedance jump, and improving the transmission efficiency. In addition, it should be noted that the size of the pads in this embodiment can be set corresponding to the impedance matcher to ensure the smoothness of signal transmission. It should be noted that the pads are not marked in the figure either.

[0072] Further, for the convenience of connection, the above-mentioned electrical connector can also include a fuzzy button;

[0073] The fuzzy button is connected to the second circuit terminal in the first signal layer.

[0074] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the fuzzy button is connected to the first signal layer to lead out the first signal layer, improving the convenience of connection. The fuzzy button in this embodiment can refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3, including a wool button housing 11 and a core 12, where the core 12 is used for conductive connection with the first signal layer, and the wool button housing 11 is used to protect the core 12. The wool button used in this embodiment is set as a vertical feed port, which is beneficial to reducing the interconnection path, increasing the space utilization rate, and the elastic connection feature of the wool button can reduce the soldering of the entire vertical interconnection structure, making the device easy to disassemble and reducing the instability caused by soldering.

[0075] Further, in order to improve the connection stability between the wool button and the first signal layer, the above-mentioned wool button can be connected to the second circuit terminal through a pad 21.

[0076] It should be noted that in this embodiment, using the pad 21 to connect the wool button to the second circuit terminal can further improve the connection firmness between the wool button and the first signal layer. The pad 21 at the connection between the wool button and the first signal layer in this embodiment is Figure 2 the pad 21 marked.
