Patent number: 6331804Abstract: In a cascade amplifier, the collector of a first transistor with a grounded emitter and the emitter of a second transistor are connected. A third transistor has the base grounded at radio frequency, the emitter connected to the base of the first transistor, and the collector connected to the collector of the second transistor. A fourth transistor connected to the emitter of the third transistor works as a constant current source. A bias changeover circuit supplies base biases of these transisiors. In this constitution, by using the bias changeover circuit for changing over the bias depending on the cut-off condition of the first transistor, the gain is changed over by making either the cascade amplifier or the third transistor operate.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2000Date of Patent: December 18, 2001Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industria, Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshito Shimizu, Noriaki Saito, Hiroyuki Yabuki

Patent number: 6307449Abstract: A filter of microwave and millimetric bands with spurious characteristic controlled is disclosed. A filter circuit on a top surface of the substrate including resonators electromagnetically resonating and coupled at a resonance frequency at a microwave band and a millimeter wave band, for filtering an input signal from the connectors through the resonator and outputting the filtered signal through the connector. The filter circuit is contained in a metal box including a top plate confronting the top surface and the filter circuit, side walls, and a bottom plate. An inside surface of the top plate has a shape other than a flat plane to control the spurious characteristic, that is, a protrusion. The bottom plate of the metal box may be coalesced. The spurious characteristic may be controlled by a hollow portion in the top plate. The protruding portion may be provided to the side walls. The spurious frequency may be controlled by a dielectric plate in the space in the shielding.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2000Date of Patent: October 23, 2001Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Michiaki Matsuo, Hiroyuki Yabuki, Mitsuo Makimoto
