Abstract

Ground impedance may have adverse effects on the performance of RF circuits that employ shunt switches. The disclosed methods and devices address this issue. The methods and devices involve the use of resonance-canceling inductors to counteract the capacitive reactance caused by parasitic capacitances and/or decoupling capacitors utilized in such systems. Solutions that incorporate series resistors to distribute the resonance across the frequency band of operation are also described. Additionally, devices that employ digitally tuned capacitors to shift the resonance frequency outside the operational band are presented.
