Disclosed is a frequency mixer. The frequency mixer includes a first matching circuit that generates a matched local oscillator (LO) signal based on an LO signal, a non-linear circuit that generates a non-linear LO signal based on the matched LO signal, a second matching circuit that generates a matched radio frequency (RF) signal based on an RF signal, a mixing circuit that generates a mixed signal based on a mixing of the non-linear LO signal and the matched RF signal, a third matching circuit that generates an intermediate frequency (IF) signal based on the mixed signal, wherein the non-linear circuit includes a non-linear transistor, a bias transistor, and an internal matching circuit connected in series.

Frequency mixer including non-linear circuit

Provided is a cascode circuit including first and second transistors connected between a drain terminal and a source terminal in cascode form, a level sifter configured to change a voltage level of a switching control signal applied to a gate terminal and provide the changed switching control signal to a gate of the first transistor, a buffer configured to delay the switching control signal and provide the delayed switching control signal to a gate of the second transistor, and a first resistor connected between the level shifter and the gate of the first transistor.

Cascode switch circuit including level shifter

Provided herein is a patch antenna including a multilayered substrate on which a plurality of dielectric layers are laminated; at least one metal pattern layer disposed between the plurality of dielectric layers outside a central area of the multilayered substrate; an antenna patch disposed on an upper surface of the multilayered substrate and within the central area; a ground layer disposed on a lower surface of the multilayered substrate; a plurality of connection via patterns penetrating the plurality of dielectric layers to connect the metal pattern layer and the ground layer, and surrounding the central area; a transmission line comprising a first transmission line unit disposed on the upper surface of the multilayered substrate and located outside the central area, and a second transmission line unit disposed on the upper surface of the multilayered substrate and located within the central area; and an impedance transformer located below the second transmission line unit within the central area of the multilayered substrate.
