  • Integrated circuit, and an arrangement and method for interconnecting components of an integrated circuit
    Patent number: 7787838
    Abstract: A monolithic substrate contains an integrated circuit comprising an amplifier having input and output, a mixer and a hybrid coupler for coupling the amplifier to the mixer. Metallic pads on the substrate are connected to each of two ports of the coupler and separate metallic pads are also connected to each of the input and output of the amplifier. The metallic pads allow the amplifier and mixer to be separately tested by a probe and the input or the output of the amplifier to be selectively connected to the mixer to enable the circuit to operate either as a receiver or transmitter. Alternatively, connections between the mixer and both input and output of the amplifier may be preformed and one of the connections subsequently severed depending on whether the circuit is to operate in receive or transmit mode.
