Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of on-chip passive devices, in particular to an on-chip transformer balon. Background technique [0002] Common baluns include high-frequency open circuit, offset and transformer. Among them: the high-frequency open-circuit balun has a narrow working bandwidth; the offset balun has a wide frequency band, but it is limited by the magnetic saturation of the magnetic ring when using high power; and the on-chip transformer balun mainly realizes balanced-unbalanced conversion through a high-frequency transformer. [0003] like figure 1 As shown, an existing on-chip transformer balun includes a primary coil 1 and a secondary coil 2. In the axial direction X of the primary coil 1 and the secondary coil 2, the primary coil 1 and the secondary coil 2 are arranged at intervals, and between the two are separated by a dielectric layer (not shown). [0004] The disadvantage of the existing on-chip transformer balun is...
