Publication number: 20080122554Abstract: A balanced/unbalanced filter module includes a switch including a first port that inputs and outputs unbalanced signals in a first frequency band, a second port that inputs and outputs unbalanced signals in a second frequency band, and a third port that inputs and outputs unbalanced signals in these two frequency bands. The switch switches a signal path. An unbalanced I/O port of a first filter that passes signals in the first frequency band is connected to the port. A port of a second filter that passes signals in the second frequency band is connected to the port. Individual balanced I/O ports of each of the first and second filters are connected to first and second branch ports with substantially the same electrical length. A balance coil for impedance matching is provided between the first and second branch ports.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 22, 2007Publication date: May 29, 2008Applicant: MURATA MANUFACTURING CO., LTD.Inventors: Tetsuro HARADA, Naoto YAMAGUCHI, Naoki NAKAYAMA, Takanori UEJIMA, Hidehiro TAKANO, Koki SAITO

Publication number: 20070270105Abstract: A high-frequency switch is constructed by connecting a first diode and a second diode that function as switching elements, inductors, capacitors, and resistors. One end of the resistor is connected between the first diode and the second diode, and the other end of the resistor is connected to the ground. Thus, charges accumulated in the diodes in the ON states are immediately released to ground via the resistor. Accordingly, quick switching from the transmission mode to the reception mode by switching of a control power supply terminal from ON to OFF is achieved.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 10, 2007Publication date: November 22, 2007Applicant: MURATA MANUFACTURING CO., LTD.Inventors: Takanori UEJIMA, Naoki NAKAYAMA

Publication number: 20070161353Abstract: A high frequency switch includes electrically connected switching elements, such as a first diode, a second diode, inductors, capacitors, and a resistor. A diode having a smaller charge capacity in the ON state is used as the first diode, while a diode having a larger charge capacity in the ON state is used as the second diode. That is, the first and second diodes utilize different part number diodes. A diode part number having a smaller charge capacity is used as the first diode, while a diode part number having a larger charge capacity is used as the second diode. Alternatively, the charge capacity of diodes that belong to the same lot may be measured and classified, so that a smaller charge capacity diode is used as the first diode, while a larger charge capacity diode is used as the second diode.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 23, 2007Publication date: July 12, 2007Applicant: MURATA MANUFACTURING CO., LTD.Inventors: Takanori UEJIMA, Naoki NAKAYAMA
