AMPLIFIER MODULE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18477992 titled 'AMPLIFIER MODULE

Simplified Explanation

The amplifier module described in the patent application includes a first preamplifier, first postamplifier, second postamplifier, output balun, and a variable capacitance element to amplify and output a differential signal.

  • The first preamplifier is located on a first substrate and amplifies the input signal.
  • The first postamplifier and second postamplifier, on a second substrate, receive the output of the first preamplifier and output a differential signal.
  • The output balun receives the differential signal from the postamplifiers and includes a primary winding and a secondary winding.
  • The variable capacitance element is connected in parallel with the primary winding of the output balun.

Original Abstract Submitted

An amplifier module includes an input terminal; a first preamplifier formed in or on a first substrate and configured to amplify a signal that is input to the input terminal; a first postamplifier and a second postamplifier that are formed in or on a second substrate and that are configured to receive an output of the first preamplifier and output a differential signal; an output balun configured to receive the differential signal that is output from the first postamplifier and the second postamplifier; and a variable capacitance element. The output balun includes a primary winding subjected to the differential signal and a secondary winding, and the variable capacitance element is connected in parallel with the primary winding of the output balun.
