Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of chip circuit design, in particular to an attenuation phase shifting system with adjustable amplitude and phase precision.
Background
The realization of high-precision numerical control attenuation and phase shift is a core technology of a phased array receiving and transmitting system, however, certain deviation exists in simulation and actual measurement in the actual chip circuit design. If the 6-bit attenuation and 6-bit displacement are required by the system, if the 6-bit direct control bit attenuator and the 6-bit direct control bit shifter are aimed for simulation during design, a certain amplitude-phase precision offset often exists in actual measurement, and then the chip needs to be repeatedly and iteratively optimized to meet the requirement of expected precision.
Conventional digitally controlled attenuators can typically be implemented in combination with MOS switching transistors, based on passive T or PI type resistive networks, by attenuating the bits for the cells: the cascade of 0.5dB, 1dB, 2dB, 4dB, 8dB and 16dB realizes the attenuation of 6 bits of 0-31.5 dB, but the deviation of the processing, manufacturing or simulation of the resistance value often causes the deviation of the attenuation value. The traditional numerical control phase shifter can be usually combined with a MOS switch tube, and is realized based on a passive T or PI type LC high-low pass network, namely, through unit phase shifting: the cascade of 5.625 degrees, 11.25 degrees, 22.5 degrees, 45 degrees, 90 degrees and 180 degrees realizes 0-354.375 degrees of phase shifting, and the phase shifting value is often offset due to the deviation of L, C machining and manufacturing or simulation. Correction of the amplitude and phase accuracy often requires multiple rounds of iterative optimization, which also further increases the cost of chip development.
The improvement of the amplitude and phase precision can be realized by improving the direct attenuation bit number and the phase shift bit number, the operation is simple and easy, but the following problems exist: the increase of the number of direct attenuation bits and the number of phase shift bits causes the index of the number of bits to be inconsistent with the index of the number of bits required by an external system; even if the number of bits is increased, the offset of the amplitude and phase precision caused by the manufacturing process or simulation deviation of the semiconductor cannot be avoided, and the correction still needs to be realized through multiple rounds of iteration; the on-chip adjustment optimization cannot be realized for index requirements of different attenuation phase shift precision of the system.
