A transmitter receiver unit of the present invention comprises a phase shifter connected between a transistor and a filter multiplexer for decreasing a reactance component of an impedance, as observed from the transistor toward the filter multiplexer, to a value close to zero in a third frequency band given as the sum or difference between the integer multiples of a second frequency band and a first frequency band. This structure decreases the impedance in the third frequency band of the filter multiplexer side as observed from the transistor, thereby making the transistor not liable to generate a signal voltage of the third frequency band.

Transmitter receiver unit and electronic apparatus using same

A module component in which mounting components and a conductive partition for dividing into a plurality of circuit blocks are mounted on a substrate. The circuit blocks are covered with a sealing member, which is further covered on its surface with a conductive film to electrically shield the circuit blocks individually. This module component can maintain bending strength, with little warpage by a sufficient shielding effect achieved without increasing the number of manufacturing processes.

Module component and method for manufacturing the same

A balun is provided in which first balanced line and second balanced line are disposed on a nearly the same plane, first unbalanced line is disposed above first balanced line at a predetermined distance from first balanced line, second unbalanced line is disposed below second balanced line at the predetermined distance from second balanced line. With this configuration, the distance between first unbalanced line and second unbalanced line can be increased thereby greatly suppressing mutual cancellation of a current flowing in first unbalanced line and a current flowing in second unbalanced line.

The first and the second power terminal electrodes are disposed on a first face of the multi-layer wiring board. The external connection power supply terminal is disposed on a second face opposite to the first face of the multi-layer wiring board and connected with the first power terminal electrode. The surface-mounted component is mounted on the first face of the multi-layer wiring board and connected with the first and the second power terminal electrodes at a first face thereof. The insulator covers at least a second face opposite to the first face of the surface-mounted component, the first power terminal electrode, and the second power terminal electrode with a first face thereof. The power supply pattern is disposed on a second face opposite to the first face of the insulator and connected with the first and the second power terminal electrodes.

Module component

A bias circuit is provided for attenuating harmonic distortions of a signal having a simple construction and which can be applied to a high-frequency amplifier used in a communication device, such as a mobile telephone. The circuit reduces a voltage drop therein and thus provides a high-frequency amplifier having reduced power consumption and an increased operating efficiency. The high-frequency amplifier includes an amplifier circuit, an output matching circuit, and the bias circuit. In the bias circuit, a parallel circuit including a first transmission line and a first capacitor has one end connected between the amplifier and the output matching circuit. The other end of the parallel circuit is connected to a power source and is grounded via a second capacitor. In the circuit, the bias circuit can be short-circuited in a desired frequency band while being an open circuit in a frequency band of a signal to be amplified, hence attenuating the harmonic distortions without using a low pass filter.

High-frequency amplifier

A high frequency wireless circuit apparatus is formed by connecting a phase shifter between an antenna duplexer and a low noise amplifier, so that the impedance of the receiving terminal of the antenna duplexer at a transmission frequency and the input impedance of the low noise amplifier may not be matched in complex conjugates of each other. Therefore it prevents the transmission output passing through the receiving terminal of the antenna duplexer and the interference signal entered through the antenna from making the cross modulation in the low noise amplifier. Thus it improves the reception sensitivity and immunity to interference signals of the high frequency wireless circuit apparatus at the same time.

The semiconductor device is a variable gain amplification circuit comprising a gate grounded circuit using a transistor, and a differential amplification circuit including transistors and constant current sources. Transistors are used as variable resistance devices, and the gain of the gate grounded circuit can be varied by changing the gate voltage of a transistor. The gain of the differential amplification circuit can be varied by changing the gate voltage of another transistor. The overall gain of the circuit can be varied within a necessary range by simultaneously operating these gain controls, and the third order distortion can be improved monotonously with the decrease of the gain.
