  • Publication number: 20240364368
    Abstract: A radio frequency module that includes a first antenna terminal, a second antenna terminal, a TDD filter, a transmission filter, a filter, and a first switch. The first switch has a first common terminal, a second common terminal, a first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal. The filter is connected to the first terminal, the TDD filter is connected to the second terminal, and the transmission filter is connected to the third terminal. The first switch is capable of switching between a first connection state and a second connection state. The first connection state connects the first common terminal to the first terminal and the first common terminal to the second terminal simultaneously. The second connection state connects the first common terminal to the first terminal, the first common terminal to the second terminal, and the second common terminal to the third terminal simultaneously.

  • Publication number: 20240097719
    Abstract: A radio-frequency circuit includes an antenna connection terminal, switch circuits, a duplexer, a low-pass filter, and a high-pass filter. The switch circuit includes a port connected to the antenna connection terminal and ports. The switch circuit includes a single transmission port connected to the port, a simultaneous transmission port connected to ports. The duplexer is connected to the port. The low-pass filter is disposed on a signal path connecting the port and the simultaneous transmission port. The high-pass filter is connected to the port. No filter is disposed on a signal path connecting the port and the single transmission port.

  • Publication number: 20230262879
    Abstract: A first filter is prevented from being affected by the coplanarity of a mounting substrate and a degradation of the filter characteristics of the first filter is reduced. A first filter, a second filter, a third filter, and a first switch are mounted on a first principal surface of a mounting substrate. The first filter passes a first high-frequency signal and a second high-frequency signal, the second filter passes a third high-frequency signal, and the third filter passes a fourth high-frequency signal. The first switch is capable of simultaneously connecting the first filter and the second filter to an antenna terminal. In a plan view from a thickness direction of the mounting substrate, the first filter is larger than the second filter and the third filter and located between the second filter and the third filter. A first wire and a second wire are each shorter than a third wire.

  • Publication number: 20230086793
    Abstract: A decrease in isolation is suppressed when transmitting both a first transmission signal and a second transmission signal in simultaneous communication. A radio frequency module includes a first transformer and a second transformer. The first transformer is included in a first differential power amplifier to amplify the first transmission signal. The second transformer is included in a second differential power amplifier to amplify the second transmission signal to be simultaneously communicated with the first transmission signal. A direction of magnetic flux generated in the first transformer is different from a direction of magnetic flux generated in the second transformer.
