背景技术 Background technique

不管是模拟电路或是数字电路,今日的电路设计大量使用振荡器,以实现各式的信号处理或通讯功能。压控振荡器(Voltage Control Oscillator)就是一种用来产生振荡信号的重要组件。压控振荡器的工作原理,在于对其输入不同的参考电压,即能输出不同的振荡频率。Regardless of whether it is an analog circuit or a digital circuit, oscillators are widely used in today's circuit design to realize various signal processing or communication functions. Voltage Control Oscillator (Voltage Control Oscillator) is an important component used to generate oscillating signals. The working principle of the voltage-controlled oscillator is that it can output different oscillation frequencies by inputting different reference voltages.

虽然压控振荡器的发展历史久远,然而随着现代电子设备对于振荡器的品质要求不断提升,压控振荡器的设计也在不断地翻新。虽如此,还是有许多的问题有待克服。Although the development of voltage-controlled oscillators has a long history, with the continuous improvement of the quality requirements of modern electronic equipment for oscillators, the design of voltage-controlled oscillators is also constantly being refurbished. Even so, there are still many problems to be overcome.

其中一个常见的问题是,在制造压控振荡器的过程中,往往因为材料上的限制或是制程控制上的困难,使得压控振荡器在生产过程中造成输出频率偏差或相位噪声变差的结果。然而,由于此时振荡器已经组装完成,因此如何有效控制压控振荡器的制造合格率,便成为一大挑战。One of the common problems is that in the process of manufacturing voltage-controlled oscillators, often due to material limitations or difficulties in process control, the output frequency deviation or phase noise of the voltage-controlled oscillator will deteriorate during the production process. result. However, since the oscillator has been assembled at this time, how to effectively control the manufacturing yield of the voltage-controlled oscillator becomes a big challenge.

Therefore, how to effectively use every space on the circuit board has become a goal to be pursued .

并且,现在有越来越多的高频产品,例如无线电话或是无线网络等,以目前的表面贴组件,因为其电极端点寄生着对高频不连续的杂散效应,故对于高频的特性产生相当严重的限制。因此在高频的领域中,如何掌握材料特性以达成最好的产品品质更是重要的工程。Moreover, there are now more and more high-frequency products, such as wireless phones or wireless networks, etc., with the current surface mount components, because the electrode terminals are parasitic to high-frequency discontinuous stray effects, so for high-frequency The properties of the . Therefore, in the high-frequency field, how to master the material properties to achieve the best product quality is even more important.

The adjustable microstrip capacitor is arranged in the resonant circuit, and one end is connected with the inductance of the resonant circuit, and the other end is grounded. When the upper microstrip is cut in the first direction, the adjustable microstrip capacitor presents inductance to reduce the resonant frequency of the resonant circuit; and when the upper microstrip is cut in the second direction, the capacitance of the adjustable microstrip capacitor decreases , to increase the resonant frequency of the resonant circuit, thereby fine-tuning the oscillating frequency generated by the voltage-controlled oscillator.

FIG. 3 is a circuit board structure of a voltage-controlled oscillator 30 . As shown in FIG. 3 , the VCO 30 includes a resonant circuit 31 , a coupling circuit 33 and an oscillating circuit 35 . For the circuit structure of the resonant circuit 31 , the coupling circuit 33 and the oscillating circuit 35 , please refer to the circuit diagram shown in FIG. 2 .

首先,利用图案化第一导电层32来形成多个微带。这些微带具有导电性,用来连接谐振电路31、耦合电路33及振荡电路35的电路组件。在这些微带中包括一上微带3310,以构成耦合电路33的微带电容331的一部分。First, a plurality of microstrips are formed by patterning the first conductive layer 32 .

接着,请参看图5A与图5B。此二图示意就俯视图观察上微带3310两种不同的调整状态。在制造压控振荡器30的过程中,可以用激光或其它切割工具,在上微带3310进行切割,例如图5A与图5B中所示的切割轨迹33103。由在上微带3310的不同位置进行切割,可使可调式微带电容331获得不同的电容量。例如图5A所示的切割轨迹,相对于图5B所示的切割轨迹,前者可使可调式微带电容331具有较小的电容值。Next, please refer to FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B . These two figures illustrate two different adjustment states of the upper microstrip 3310 observed from the top view. In the process of manufacturing the voltage-controlled oscillator 30 , laser or other cutting tools can be used to cut the upper microstrip 3310 , such as the cutting track 33103 shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B . By cutting different positions of the upper microstrip 3310, the adjustable microstrip capacitor 331 can obtain different capacitances. For example, in the cutting track shown in FIG. 5A , compared with the cutting track shown in FIG. 5B , the former can make the adjustable microstrip capacitor 331 have a smaller capacitance value.

由于可调式微带电容331安置于压控振荡器30的耦合电路中,因此当其电容量改变时,便会改变压控振荡器的振荡电路与谐振电路间的耦合量,随切割微带多寡而呈现出不同的相位噪声以及输出频率,然而在本实施例中所探讨的是如何由耦合电容的调整来获得最佳的耦合量,以获取最低的相位噪声输出,对于频率的改变如果可能超出规格制定范围,则应该搭配第二实施例来加以补偿。Since the adjustable microstrip capacitor 331 is placed in the coupling circuit of the voltage-controlled oscillator 30, when its capacitance changes, the amount of coupling between the oscillation circuit and the resonant circuit of the voltage-controlled oscillator will be changed. However, it shows different phase noise and output frequency. However, what is discussed in this embodiment is how to obtain the best coupling amount by adjusting the coupling capacitor to obtain the lowest phase noise output. If the frequency change may exceed The specification range should be matched with the second embodiment to compensate.

第二实施例second embodiment

在此实施例中,安装于电子装置电路板上的压控振荡器,是由调整谐振电路中的可调式并联微带电容器,如图2中的可调式微带电容211,以达成在制造压控振荡器过程中,调整其输出频率的工作。In this embodiment, the voltage-controlled oscillator installed on the circuit board of the electronic device is adjusted by adjusting the adjustable parallel microstrip capacitor in the resonant circuit, such as the adjustable microstrip capacitor 211 in Figure 2, to achieve In the process of controlling the oscillator, adjust its output frequency.

请参照图6A,其示意一种压控振荡器40的电路板结构及其线路。压控振荡器40包括一谐振电路、一耦合电路及一振荡电路三部分。谐振电路、耦合电路及振荡电路的电路构造,可参考图2所示的电路示意图。Please refer to FIG. 6A , which illustrates a circuit board structure and circuit of a voltage-controlled oscillator 40 . The VCO 40 includes three parts: a resonant circuit, a coupling circuit and an oscillating circuit. For the circuit structure of the resonant circuit, the coupling circuit and the oscillating circuit, please refer to the circuit diagram shown in FIG. 2 .

在此实施例中其电路结构如下。首先,将第一导电层42图案化以形成多个微带。这些微带具有导电性,用来连接谐振电路、耦合电路及振荡电路的电路组件。并且,在这些微带中包括一上微带4110,位于谐振电路中成为谐振电路的一部分。In this embodiment, its circuit structure is as follows. First, the first conductive layer 42 is patterned to form a plurality of microstrips. These microstrips are electrically conductive and are used to connect circuit components of resonant circuits, coupling circuits, and oscillator circuits. And, these microstrips include an upper microstrip 4110, which is located in the resonant circuit and becomes a part of the resonant circuit.

此外,将第二导电层46图案化,使第二导电层46至少形成一个下微带接地,并与第一导电层42的上微带4110重叠。并且,在第一导电层42与第二导电层46间安置一绝缘层44。绝缘层44具有一穿孔481,在穿孔481中填充导电性材料4116,而由导电材料4116,可将第二导电层46与第一导电层42重叠的下微带连接到位于第一导电层42的振荡电路,由此使得上微带4110、下微带及绝缘层44共同构成一可调式微带电容器411,且此可调式微带电容器安置于谐振电路中。In addition, the second conductive layer 46 is patterned so that at least one lower microstrip of the second conductive layer 46 is grounded and overlaps with the upper microstrip 4110 of the first conductive layer 42 . Moreover, an insulating layer 44 is disposed between the first conductive layer 42 and the second conductive layer 46 . The insulating layer 44 has a perforation 481, and the conductive material 4116 is filled in the perforation 481, and by the conductive material 4116, the lower microstrip that overlaps the second conductive layer 46 and the first conductive layer 42 can be connected to the first conductive layer 42. The oscillating circuit, so that the upper microstrip 4110, the lower microstrip and the insulating layer 44 jointly form an adjustable microstrip capacitor 411, and the adjustable microstrip capacitor is placed in the resonant circuit.

接着,决定压控振荡器的输出频率应该调高或调低。如图6B所示,当决定调低输出频率时,利用激光或其它切割工具,以一第一方向A部分切割上微带,此时,该微带电容将因为电波传输路径增长而呈现出电感性,由此以降低谐振电路的谐振频率。相对地,如果决定要调高输出频率时,则利用激光或其它切割工具,以一第二方向B部分切割上微带,由此以降低微带电容411的电容量,进而达到增高谐振电路的谐振频率的目的。由上述方法,便可调整压控振荡器所输出振荡频率。Next, decide whether the output frequency of the VCO should be adjusted up or down. As shown in Figure 6B, when it is decided to lower the output frequency, laser or other cutting tools are used to cut the upper microstrip in a first direction A. At this time, the microstrip capacitor will present an electric current due to the increase of the electric wave transmission path. Inductive, thereby reducing the resonant frequency of the resonant circuit. Conversely, if it is decided to increase the output frequency, laser or other cutting tools are used to cut the upper microstrip in a second direction B, thereby reducing the capacitance of the microstrip capacitor 411, thereby increasing the resonance of the resonant circuit frequency purpose. By the above method, the output oscillation frequency of the voltage controlled oscillator can be adjusted.

为了更清楚地说明此种可调式微带电容器的结构,请参照图6B,此图例示可调式电容器411的结构。由于此可调式电容器411与第一实施例的可调式电容331部分结构类似,因此在下面的说明中,标号与前面相同者,其意义可参照前面的描述。In order to illustrate the structure of the adjustable microstrip capacitor more clearly, please refer to FIG. 6B , which illustrates the structure of the adjustable capacitor 411 . Since the structure of the adjustable capacitor 411 is similar to that of the adjustable capacitor 331 of the first embodiment, in the following description, the reference numerals are the same as before, and their meanings can refer to the previous description.

可调式电容器411由上微带4110、下微带4112及夹在二者间的绝缘层44构成。上微带4110及下微带4112分别由图案化第一导电层42及第二导电层46而成。在此例子中,可调式电容411的上微带4110与电感49及电感43相接,另一端则由绝缘层48的穿孔481中的导电性材质4116连接到地。此外,请参照图6C,此图例示可调式微带电容器411与电感49相接并与电感43并联的电路示意图。The adjustable capacitor 411 is composed of an upper microstrip 4110, a lower microstrip 4112 and an insulating layer 44 sandwiched between them. The upper microstrip 4110 and the lower microstrip 4112 are formed by patterning the first conductive layer 42 and the second conductive layer 46 respectively. In this example, the upper microstrip 4110 of the adjustable capacitor 411 is connected to the inductor 49 and the inductor 43 , and the other end is connected to the ground through the conductive material 4116 in the through hole 481 of the insulating layer 48 . In addition, please refer to FIG. 6C , which illustrates a schematic circuit diagram of an adjustable microstrip capacitor 411 connected to the inductor 49 and connected in parallel with the inductor 43 .

接着,请参照图7A与图7B,其说明以第一方向A切割可调式微带电容器411的上微带4110,由此使得可调式微带电容器411呈现出电感性,并改变其谐振电路的谐振频率,进而调整压控振荡器的输出频率范围。Next, please refer to FIG. 7A and FIG. 7B , which illustrate that the upper microstrip 4110 of the adjustable microstrip capacitor 411 is cut in the first direction A, thereby making the adjustable microstrip capacitor 411 appear inductive and changing the resonance circuit thereof. Resonant frequency, and then adjust the output frequency range of the voltage controlled oscillator.

举例来说,如果以激光或其它切割工具在上微带4110切出图7A的轨迹41103,则可降低压控振荡器的输出频率。如果想要使压控振荡器的输出频率降得更低,则可切出如图7B的轨迹41105。For example, if the trace 41103 of FIG. 7A is cut out on the upper microstrip 4110 with a laser or other cutting tools, the output frequency of the VCO can be reduced. If you want to lower the output frequency of the voltage-controlled oscillator, you can cut out the track 41105 as shown in Figure 7B.

接着,请参照图7C与图7D,此二图说明以第二方向B切割可调式微带电容411的上微带4110切出图7C的轨迹41107与图7D的轨迹41109,由此以改变可调式电容411的电容值使得谐振频率将因为并联电容量减小而上升。如果以激光或其它切割工具在上微带4110切出图7D的轨迹41109,则压控振荡器的输出频率可以升得更高。Next, please refer to FIG. 7C and FIG. 7D. These two figures illustrate that cutting the upper microstrip 4110 of the adjustable microstrip capacitor 411 in the second direction B cuts out the trace 41107 of FIG. 7C and the trace 41109 of FIG. The capacitance value of the tuning capacitor 411 makes the resonant frequency rise due to the reduction of the parallel capacitance. If the trace 41109 of FIG. 7D is cut out on the upper microstrip 4110 with a laser or other cutting tools, the output frequency of the voltage-controlled oscillator can be increased even higher.
