A coupling circuit, including: a coupler including a first conductive line and a second conductive line coupled to the first one; at each end of the second line of the coupler, a two-output signal splitter; and at each output of each splitter, a filtering function.

Wide-band coupler

A passive integrated circuit formed on a substrate, including contact areas of a conductive material specifically capable of receiving bonding pads, wherein the conductive material further creates connections between regions of a lower metallization level.

Passive integrated circuit

A multiband coupling circuit including: a number of paths equal to the number of frequency bands, each path having a first terminal and a second terminal; a third terminal and a fourth terminal; a number of distributed couplers equal to the number of paths, all couplers being identical and sized according to the highest frequency band, and each coupler including a first conductive line between first and second ports connected to the first and second terminals of the concerned path, and a second conductive line coupled to the first one between third and fourth ports; a first set of attenuations between the third ports of the couplers and the third terminal of the circuit; and an array of filters between the fourth ports of the coupler and the fourth terminal of the circuit.

Multiband coupling architecture

A distributed coupler including a first line intended to convey a radio signal between its two ends and a second line intended to sample, by coupling, part of the signal, wherein: one of the lines is formed on an insulating substrate; and the other line is formed in a lead frame supporting the substrate, one line being above the other.

Distributed coupler with first line on substrate and second line in package supporting substrate

A distributed multiband coupling circuit including: a number n of first and of second terminals equal to the number of frequency bands; a third terminal and a fourth terminal; a number n of distributed couplers equal to the number of frequency bands, all couplers being identical and sized according to the highest frequency band, and each coupler including a first conductive line between first and second ports intended to convey a signal to be transmitted in the concerned frequency band, and a second conductive line coupled to the first one between third and fourth ports; a first set of resistive splitters in cascade between the third ports of the couplers, a terminal of the splitter associated with the first coupler being connected to the third terminal of the coupling circuit; and a second set of resistive splitters in cascade between the fourth ports of the couplers, a terminal of the splitter associated with the first coupler being connected to the fourth terminal of the coupling circuit.

Multiband coupling circuit

A balun including on the common-mode side, an inductive element in series with a first capacitive element between a first common-mode access terminal and the ground; and on the differential-mode side, two inductive windings in series having first respective ends defining differential access terminals and having second common ends connected to ground, second capacitive elements being respectively connected in parallel on the differential-mode windings.
