Abstract
A transceiver module and duplexer within a communication device supports a minimized antenna volume and enhances a transfer gain for transmit and receive channels. The duplexer is communicatively coupled to one of multiple antenna and filter matching configurations which include a first configuration that couples receive and transmit filter matching circuits to a single antenna matching circuit. When the duplexer is coupled to the first configuration, receive and transmit filters of the duplexer are respectively coupled to the receive filter matching circuit and the transmit filter matching circuit. As a result, the antenna matching circuit and the filter matching circuits collectively provide the enhanced transfer gain. The duplexer is placed within an integrated circuit (IC) package to provide a duplexer IC having a specific number of input/output (I/O) pins arranged in a pre-established I/O pin mapping to maintain duplexer functionality and provide compatibility with various antenna and filter matching configurations.
