Abstract:
A tunable matching network is disclosed. In a particular example, the matching network includes at least one first inductor in a signal path of the matching network. The matching network includes at least one second inductor outside of the signal path. The matching network includes one or more switches coupled to the at least one second inductor. The one or more switches are configured to selectively enable mutual coupling of the at least one first inductor and the at least one second inductor.

Abstract:
Some implementations provide a device that includes a passive component and a substrate coupled to the passive component, where a surface of the substrate comprises a first irradiated portion. In some implementations, the first irradiated portion is located in an offset portion of the substrate. Some implementations provide an integrated device that includes a device layer and a substrate coupled to the device layer, where a surface of the substrate comprises a first irradiated portion. In some implementations, the first irradiated portion is located in an offset portion of the substrate.
Abstract:
An inductor is provided on a substrate that includes a capacitor. The inductor comprises a series of wire loops. An end of the wire loop is wire bonded to the capacitor.
Abstract:
Systems and methods relate to a semiconductor package comprising a first substrate or a 2D passive-on-glass (POG) structure with a passive component and a first set of one or more package pads formed on a face of a glass substrate. The semiconductor package also includes a second or laminate substrate with a second set of one or more package pads formed on a face of the second or laminate substrate. Solder balls are dropped, configured to contact the first set of one or more package pads with the second set of one or more package pads, wherein the first substrate or the 2D POG structure is placed face-up on the face of the second or laminate substrate. A printed circuit board (PCB) can be coupled to a bottom side of the second or laminate substrate.
Abstract:
Tunable diplexers in three-dimensional (3D) integrated circuits (IC) (3DIC) are disclosed. In one embodiment, the tunable diplexer may be formed by providing one of either a varactor or a variable inductor in the diplexer. The variable nature of the varactor or the variable inductor allows a notch in the diplexer to be tuned so as to select a band stop to eliminate harmonics at a desired frequency as well as control the cutoff frequency of the pass band. By stacking the elements of the diplexer into three dimensions, space is conserved and a variety of varactors and inductors are able to be used.
