  • Patent number: 9331645
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for compensating a power amplification unit of a wireless RF module that includes a baseband unit, a RF transceiver unit, a power amplification unit and a control unit. The baseband unit is connected to the power amplification unit through the control unit and the RF transceiver unit. Based on the characteristic of the power amplification unit, the baseband unit provides a control signal to regulate the output signal characteristic of the power amplification unit, or provides a RF transceiver unit control signal to regulate the characteristics of the RF signal being transmitted by the RF transceiver unit to the power amplification unit, or to regulate the characteristics of the baseband signal being transmitted to the RF transceiver unit, enabling the characteristics of the output signal of the power amplification unit to meet the specifications of the related system.

  • Publication number: 20150256168
    Abstract: A switching device having a good isolation characteristic is disclosed. The switching device comprises a switch unit and a control unit, wherein the control unit is connected to a power supply terminal, and connected to the switch unit via a control line and a power line. The control unit comprises a voltage regulator unit that is electrically connected to the power supply terminal and the power line of the switch unit. When the switch unit enters standby mode, the control unit provides an isolation voltage to the switch unit to effectively enhance the isolation characteristic of the switching device in the standby mode.

  • Publication number: 20140287699
    Abstract: An RF front-end module includes a transmitting/receiving terminal, a control unit, a first transmitting block and a second transmitting block. The first transmitting block and the second transmitting block connect the transmitting/receiving terminal and the control unit. The control unit controls on or off status of the first transmitting block and the second transmitting block. Thus, the first transmitting block and the second transmitting block can send a signal to the transmitting/receiving terminal directly without pass through any switch unit, avoiding extra signal loss on switch unit.

  • Patent number: 8022786
    Abstract: A front-end circuit of the wireless transceiver is disclosed to reduce the number of the pin count of the chip, and achieve the impedance matching. The circuit comprises an antenna unit, a receiver, and a transmitting block, all of which are connected together, wherein there is no switch provided between the receiver and the antenna unit, such that the loss of switch can be avoided for reducing the noise figure and improve the sensitivity of the receiving path accordingly.

  • Publication number: 20060135084
    Abstract: Radio frequency front-end matching circuits suitable for a transceiver module with TR switch integrated in a transceiver chip. The radio frequency front-end transceiver module comprises a radio frequency (RF) front-end device, a transmit/receive (TR) switch, a transmitter, a receiver and an internal matching circuit, in which the TR switch, the receiver, the transmitter and the matching circuit are integrated in one chip. The internal matching circuit is disposed at the first signal transmission path or the second signal transmission path selectively. The internal matching circuit is connected between the TR switch and the receiver when disposed at the first signal transmission path (receiving path) or between the TR switch and the transmitter when disposed at the second signal transmission path (transmitting path), such that the RF front-end device is impedance matched to both the receiver and the transmitter.

  • Publication number: 20050195541
    Abstract: A first inductor or resistor has a first terminal connected to a first node and a second terminal connected to a supply node or AC ground node. The first node is a first point of connection between a first circuit and a second circuit. A first varactor has a first terminal connected to the first node and a second terminal connected to a control signal. An optional control signal generator generates the control signal according to the C-V curve of the first varactor in order to adjust the capacitance of the first varactor, optimize the energy transfer between the first circuit and the second circuit and also can match the output impedance of the first circuit to the input impedance of the second circuit.

  • Patent number: 6066974
    Abstract: A transistor switch comprises a first field-effect transistor, a second field-effect transistor, a clamping circuit and a coupling circuit. The first field-effect transistor is controlled by a first voltage source to be turned on during a transmission mode. The second field-effect transistor, which is controlled by a second voltage source to be turned off during the transmission mode, has one current carrying terminal connected to the first field-effect transistor. The clamping circuit is connected between a gate of the second field-effect transistor and the second voltage source. The coupling circuit is connected between the gate and one current carrying terminal of the second field-effect transistor.
