  • Publication number: 20090128254
    Abstract: A high frequency electronic component includes a switch and a balun. The switch performs switching between a first transmission signal in the form of an unbalanced signal received at a first input port and a second transmission signal in the form of an unbalanced signal received at a second input port, and outputs one of the first and second transmission signals from an output port. The balun converts the transmission signal in the form of an unbalanced signal outputted form the output port of the switch to a transmission signal in the form of a balanced signal, and outputs this signal to a balanced input power amplifier.

  • Publication number: 20090128253
    Abstract: A high frequency electronic component includes: a first input terminal that receives a first transmission signal in the form of an unbalanced signal; a second input terminal that receives a second transmission signal in the form of a balanced signal; a balun that converts the second transmission signal in the form of a balanced signal received at the second input terminal to a second transmission signal in the form of an unbalanced signal and outputs this signal; and a switch. The switch performs switching between a signal received at a first input port and a signal received at a second input port, and outputs one of the signals from an output port. The first input port receives the first transmission signal received at the first input terminal. The second input port receives the second transmission signal in the form of an unbalanced signal outputted from the balun. The output port is connected to a power amplifier.

  • Patent number: 6600385
    Abstract: The front-end module is composed of a multilayer substrate and surface-mounted components. The front end module constitutes antenna switches, filters, and a high frequency circuit comprising a band splitter circuit as well as the front end of the transceiver circuit equipped with a plurality of transmission/reception features whose communications systems are different. The multilayer substrate arranges a band splitter circuit pattern at the center in the plane direction and symmetrically arranges a plurality of antenna switch conductor patterns whose communications systems are different, with respect to the pattern for the band splitter circuit.

  • Patent number: 5949299
    Abstract: A multilayered balun transformer in which not only loss can be suppressed but also phase difference or level difference between balanced signal terminals can be suppressed and which become easy to design. In the multilayered balun signal transformer, a coil 4 and a capacitor C1 are formed in a dielectric by a multilayered structure to thereby form a high-pass filter 6. A low-pass filter 9 is formed from another combination of a coil 7 and a capacitor C2. The high-pass filter 6 and the low-pass filter 9 are arranged lengthwise in the direction of multilayer so that the capacitors C1 and C2 are present on extensions of magnetic flux generated in the inside of the coils 4 and 7 respectively.
