Provided is a receiving device that is used for a spread spectrum radar apparatus, receives a spectrum-spread signal, and obtains a precise radar spectrum, and includes: a despreading unit that (i) generates first and second despread signals that are generated by despreading a reception signal using a pseudo-noise code, the second despread signal passing through a transmission line carrying a current having a current value identical to a current value of a current carried by a transmission line through which the first despread signal passes, and (ii) includes a first transistor pair including first and second transistors having an identical characteristic, the first transistor outputting the first despread signal, and the second transistor outputting the second despread signal; and a quadrature demodulating unit that generates an in-phase signal and a quadrature signal by quadrature-demodulating the first despread signal and the second despread signal, respectively.

摘要:
A semiconductor integrated circuit device with a balun which is formed above a conductive semiconductor substrate and which includes a dielectric film, an unbalanced line for transmitting an unbalanced signal, and balanced lines for transmitting a balanced signal. The unbalanced line is placed opposite to the balanced lines via a nano-composite film that is a region of the dielectric film. The nano-composite film, interposed between the unbalanced line and the balanced lines, has a relative permittivity higher than that of other regions of the dielectric film. This allows suppression of electromagnetic coupling of transmission lines or passive elements other than the balun, thereby providing a semiconductor device with a wide-band and small-size balun.
