Abstract
The present invention provides an antenna impedance matching apparatus, semiconductor chip, and method. The apparatus includes: a semiconductor chip, including multiple adjustable capacitors and multiple switches; and at least one impedance component, located outside the semiconductor chip, where the semiconductor chip is coupled to the at least one impedance component through multiple terminals and coupled to an input terminal and an output terminal of the antenna impedance matching apparatus, the input terminal and the output terminal of the antenna impedance matching apparatus are respectively coupled to a radio frequency circuit and an antenna, the multiple switches are configured to, under control of a control signal, switch a connection between the multiple adjustable capacitors and the at least one impedance component, and values of the multiple adjustable capacitors are adjusted by an adjustment signal, so as to tune impedance matching of the antenna.
