Abstract: Integrated circuits and integrated circuit dies include TSVs laid out in symmetrical patterns. Because of the symmetrical arrangement of the TSVs and associated routing patterns, an integrated circuit is able to support operation of multiple similar dies that are placed in different positions in the integrated circuit. This in turn simplifies the design and production of the multiple similar dies, thus reducing development and manufacturing costs for the corresponding integrated circuits.

Abstract: Disclosed is a transmission radio frequency (RF) circuit including a transmission mixer configured to receive an intermediate frequency (IF) signal and up-convert the IF signal into an RF signal, a driving amplifier configured to amplify the RF signal, and an LLC filter electrically connected to a differential output of the transmission mixer and a differential input of the driving amplifier, the LLC filter comprising a first inductor connecting a first node of the differential output of the transmission mixer to a first intermediate node, a second inductor connecting a second node of the differential output of the transmission mixer to a second intermediate node, a third inductor connecting the first intermediate node to the second intermediate node, and a capacitor in parallel with the third inductor.
