Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of ultra wideband frequency combiner circuit.
Background technology
Along with the development of measuring technology, requirement for microwave test instrument is that operating frequency is more and more higher, working frequency range is more and more wider, the high-end requirement of operating frequency of the microwave test instrument that current employing coaxially exports reaches 70GHz, frequency range low side requires also to reach 250kHz, demanded power output reaches more than+20dBm (input power of low frequency can reach+30dBm), the harmonic requirement of signal path reaches more than 60dBc, wide band radiofrequency signal like this is difficult to directly produce and process, must be realized by the mode of synthesizing after first segmentation, this just gives the bandwidth of operation of frequency range combiner circuit, bear power, loss provides very high requirement.Prior art adopts electronic switch to realize frequency range synthesis, working frequency range is difficult to the bandwidth demand meeting 250kHz-70GHz, the compression point of electronic switch is lower simultaneously (is limited by characteristic of semiconductor, the low-frequency compression point of below 100MHz is very low, most products only provides the compression point index of more than 100MHz), if input power exceedes compression point, the power characteristic of signal transmission and spectral purity will be caused to be subject to extreme influence.Therefore the synthesis how signal of each frequency range being carried out broadband like this at the output of tester exports and can bear larger input power is the difficult point faced at present.
Broadband frequency range synthetic technology is the key technology realizing broadband signal generation, be used in broadband test instrument, being how that wide-band output signal, as far as possible few minimizing power loss and signal spectrum worsen by the signal syntheses of frequency-division section process in the rear end of signal path, is the subject matter that frequency range synthetic technology faces.
Prior art mainly realizes broadband frequency range synthesis by electronic switch, a kind of technology is the MMIC switch adopting field effect transistor to realize, its operation principle adopts the break-make of multiple field effect transistor to realize frequency range synthesis, theory diagram as figure 5 illustrates, the signal of two frequency ranges, respectively from D1 port and the input of D2 port, exports after the synthesis of D3 port.Its feature is the semiconductor self-characteristic being limited by field effect transistor, compression point is general, it is very wide that bandwidth of operation is also difficult to do, reach 250KHz-70GHz full frequency band bandwidth of operation, it is very little that the size of pipe and parasitic parameter will do, technological level requires high, but too small pipe sizing can reduce it bears power, and bandwidth sum power index is difficult to compatibility.A switch chip of 1CG6-8054 of Shi De company of the present Jin You U.S. reaches 250kHz-70GHz bandwidth requirement, all the other highest frequencies only work 50GHz, its basic mechanical design feature as shown in Figure 6, the 1dB compression point (P-1dB) of this switch is+15dBm in 100MHz-70GHz frequency range, the loss of 50GHz is that the loss of 2.6dB, 70GHz does not provide.This technology can meet the broadband frequency range synthesis under low-power.
Another technology adopts the MMIC switch of PIN diode to realize, and the signal of two frequency ranges, respectively from e1 port and the input of E2 port, exports after the synthesis of E3 port.Its schematic diagram is as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8: this technology have employed PIN diode series-parallel system and carrys out spread bandwidth, it bears power and burns power decision primarily of the diode of connecting, power characteristic is slightly better than field-effect diode switch, its difficulty realized also is that bandwidth is inadequate, bear power limited, reach the frequency of utilization of 70GHz, PIN diode must have very little parasitic parameter to realize, also high to the requirement of semiconductor technology, but along with the raising of pipe frequency of utilization, the reduction of the reduction of size and the power capacity of pipe will inevitably be brought, be difficult to meet current actual demand simultaneously.Broadband P IN switch best is at present the product of MA-COM company, in order to obtain good broadband character, this switch have employed special aluminium arsenide potassium technique, covers the operating frequency range of 50MHz-50GHz, upper frequency limit can expand to 70GHz, but performance index can not ensure; The maximum power that burns is (much larger than P
-1dB) be+23dm, bear power general.This technical approach can meet the low-power frequency range synthesis of 50MHz-50GHz.
The first technology is that the MMIC switch adopting field effect transistor to realize realizes frequency range synthesis, and its frequency range meets the frequency range synthesis requirement of 250kHz-70GHz substantially, but to be compression point lower for its shortcoming, and the high-end loss of frequency is larger.The P-1dB of 100MHz-70GHz frequency range is+15dBm (below 100MHz compression point is lower), as the close+15dBm of input power, harmonic characterisitic can be brought sharply to worsen, and therefore can only be used for the occasion of small-power broadband frequency range synthesis; And its loss increases gradually along with the increase of operating frequency, be that 2.6dB, 70GHz are about 4dB at 50GHz, high-end loss is larger.
The second technology adopts PIN diode MMIC switch to realize frequency range synthesis, wideband switch operating frequency best is at present 50MHz-50GHz, frequency is the highest can expand to 70GHz reluctantly, but its insertion loss index cannot ensure, its frequency low side can only arrive 50MHz simultaneously, below 50MHz frequency range cannot work, and this technology only can meet the frequency range synthesis occasion of 50MHz-70GHz reluctantly, and bandwidth cannot all cover 250KHz-70GHz bandwidth.In power, this technology does not provide 50MHz-50GHz frequency range P-1dB index, only provides that to burn power be+23dm, infers that P-1dB is far below+23dm, adopts this technology to exceed+23dBm and switch will be caused to burn, bear power limited according to know-why; In loss, only following present performance index in 50GHz frequency range, 50GHz-70GHz frequency range does not provide specific targets.Therefore adopt this technology both cannot meet bandwidth requirement, also cannot meet the frequency range synthesis occasion that input power is larger, its major defect is that frequency band is wide not, to bear power not high enough, and high-frequency loss is large.
In sum, adopt existing two kinds of technology all cannot meet the requirement of 250kHz-70GHz frequency range combiner circuit for bandwidth sum input power, and its loss raises with frequency and increases, high-end loss is large.
