  • Patent number: 10187194
    Abstract: A transmit-and-receive module includes a power amplifier, a low-noise amplifier, first and second phase shifter circuits, and a correction circuit. The power amplifier amplifies power of first and second transmit signals. The low-noise amplifier amplifies first and second received signals without increasing noise. The first and second phase shifter circuits adjust impedance for the first received signal and that for the second received signal. The correction circuit supplies a canceling signal to an output node of the second phase shifter circuit. The canceling signal is used for canceling the first transmit signal passing through a receive filter.

  • Publication number: 20180337643
    Abstract: A multi-band power amplifier module includes at least one transmission input terminal, at least one power amplifier circuit that receives a first transmission signal and a second transmission signal through the at least one transmission input terminal, a first filter circuit that allows the first transmission signal to pass therethrough, a second filter circuit that allows the second transmission signal to pass therethrough, at least one transmission output terminal through which the first and second transmission signals output from the first and second filter circuits are output, a transmission output switch that outputs each of the first and second transmission signals output from the at least one power amplifier circuit to the first filter circuit or the second filter circuit, and a first tuning circuit that adjusts impedance matching between the at least one power amplifier circuit and the at least one transmission output terminal.

  • Publication number: 20180175999
    Abstract: A high frequency module includes a duplexer that includes a transmission filter, a receive-only filter, and a power amplifier that power-amplifies a transmission signal. In order to improve the isolation characteristics between a transmission signal and a reception signal at the duplexer, the receive-only filter is arranged between the power amplifier and the duplexer.

  • Patent number: 9178489
    Abstract: Isolators are disposed such that DC magnetic fields of permanent magnets intensity with each other, and thus, the input impedance of non-reciprocal circuits 3a and 3b (regulating means 3) is reduced. Accordingly, the impedance conversion ratio between the output impedance of amplifying means 2 and the input impedance of the regulating means 3 is reduced to be relatively small. Thus, by simplifying the configuration of matching means 4 disposed between the amplifying means 2 and the regulating means 3, the insertion loss of the matching means 4 can be reduced, thereby enhancing the efficiency of a circuit module 1. Additionally, it is possible to dispose the non-reciprocal circuits 3a and 3b close to each other so that the DC magnetic fields of the permanent magnets can intensity with each other, thereby increasing the design flexibility of the circuit module 1 and accordingly reducing the size of the circuit module 1.

  • Patent number: 9148110
    Abstract: As a capacitor Cj is connected in parallel to a non-reciprocal circuit 3, in a predetermined frequency band in which a power amplifier 2 is used, or in other words, in a predetermined frequency band used in communication, an input impedance of the non-reciprocal circuit 3 is adjusted and the length of an impedance curve (reflection coefficient S11) at an input terminal P2 of the non-reciprocal circuit 3 can thus be reduced. In addition, an output impedance of the power amplifier 2 and an input impedance of the non-reciprocal circuit 3 can be matched in a broad band through an interstage matching circuit 7 (input matching circuit 6) provided between an output terminal P1 of the power amplifier 2 and the input terminal P2 of the non-reciprocal circuit 3.
