The frequency detector includes a first impedance circuit and a second impedance circuit. The first impedance circuit has a first terminal for receiving an input signal, and a second terminal for outputting a divisional signal. The second impedance circuit has a first terminal coupled to the second terminal of the first impedance circuit, and a second terminal coupled to a first system voltage terminal. The frequency response of the first impedance circuit is different from a frequency response of the second impedance circuit. The resistance of the first impedance circuit, a resistance of the second impedance circuit, and the divisional signal change with a frequency of the input signal.

Radio frequency circuit

An amplification device includes an amplification circuit, an inductor, a regulator, and a impedance circuit. The amplification circuit has an input terminal for receiving a radio frequency signal, and an output terminal for outputting an amplified radio frequency signal. The inductor has a first terminal, and a second terminal coupled to the output terminal of the amplification circuit. The regulator is coupled to the first terminal of the inductor and generates a steady voltage and/or a steady current. The impedance circuit has a first terminal coupled to the output terminal of the amplification circuit, and a second terminal coupled to a first system voltage terminal. The impedance circuit provides a low frequency impedance path to suppress a beat frequency signal in the amplified radio frequency signal.

A semiconductor structure includes a first well, a semiconductor element, a second well and a first isolation layer. The semiconductor element is formed on or contacts the first well. The first well is formed on the second well. The first isolation layer is used to reduce a parasitic effect between the first well and the second well. The bottom of the first isolation layer is at least as deep as the bottom of the first well. The first isolation layer substantially forms a first ring structure around the first well. The doping type of the second well is different from the doping type of the first well.
