  • Patent number: 11770115
    Abstract: An exemplary tunable circuit includes an inductor coupled to a node and a first capacitor coupled to the node. The tunable circuit also includes a variable capacitor coupled to the node, such that a total capacitance of the tunable circuit depends on a fixed capacitance of the first capacitor and a variable capacitance of the variable capacitor. In an example, the inductor and the first capacitor are both included in a passive device and the variable capacitor is in a semiconductor device. The variable capacitor allows the total capacitance to be modified for the purpose of, for example, calibrating the capacitance to account for manufacturing variations, and/or adjusting to a frequency range of operation used by wireless devices in a region of the world. The first capacitor may be a higher quality capacitor providing a larger portion of the total capacitance than the variable capacitor.

  • Patent number: 11728293
    Abstract: Mobile phones and other mobile devices communicate wirelessly by transmitting and receiving RF signals. Transmitters and receivers in wireless devices process RF signals in certain frequency ranges or bands. Signals in other frequencies can be blocked or filtered out by, for example, a lumped-element circuit or a lumped-element filter consisting of passive electrical components such as inductors, capacitors, and resistors. A passive component device, or integrated passive device, is one example of a lumped-element filter fabricated with passive components on a die. In a mobile device, a passive component device and one or more integrated circuits or other chips used for signal processing are interconnected by being mounted on (i.e., coupled to) a metallization structure or package substrate in a chip module or multi-chip module. The demand for miniaturization of hand-held mobile devices drives a need for reducing the sizes of chip modules that are inside a mobile device.
