A diplexer includes dielectric layers stacked in a lamination direction. The diplexer includes a reference surface extending in a direction orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to the lamination direction, a common terminal on the reference surface, a high-pass circuit including a capacitor, a low-pass circuit including an inductor, a common line connecting the common terminal and a branch portion, a first via connecting the branch portion and the capacitor in the high-pass circuit, and a second via connecting the branch portion and the inductor in the low-pass circuit. The first via extends along the lamination direction from a first layer where the branch portion is located to a second layer where the capacitor in the high-pass circuit is located.

A circuit comprising: a passive reactive component; and an active circuit, the active circuit arranged to increase the ac voltage difference across the reactive component by changing the current at an input to the reactive component and the current at an output of the reactive component by equal and opposite amounts. By increasing the current on one side of the resonant circuit and decreasing the current on the other side of the resonant circuit, the amount of current flowing through the resonant circuit is increased and thus the ac voltage difference across the inductor of the LC resonant circuit is increased. The Q of an inductor (the ratio of its imaginary to real impedance) is increased. In a filter, the improved Q provides a sharp, high rejection notch and faster pass-band to stop-band roll-off, thus improving the frequency response of the circuit.

A radio frequency circuit includes a filter of a Band A, a filter of a Band B, a filter of a Band C, a low pass filter that is connected between a common terminal and a first terminal, a high pass filter that is connected between the common terminal and a second terminal, and an impedance variable circuit. The frequency interval between the Band A and the Band B is smaller than the frequency interval between the Band A and the Band C. In CA of the Band A and the Band B, the filter is connected to the first terminal, the filter is connected to the second terminal, and an impedance of the low pass filter when viewed from the first terminal and an impedance of the high pass filter when viewed from the second terminal have a complex conjugate relationship.

A signal receiving device and an equalizer tuning method thereof are provided. A first equalizer receives an input signal and generates a first equalized signal by compensating the input signal according to a first equalization parameter. A second equalizer generates a second equalized signal by compensating the first equalized signal according to a second equalization parameter. A clock and data recovery circuit recovers the second equalized signal to generate an output signal. An equalizing controller receives the input signal and outputs a first control signal and a second control signal, to adjust the first equalization parameter according to the first control signal and adjust the second equalization parameter according to the second control signal. The equalizing controller detects a first pattern symbol and a second pattern symbol from the output signal and tunes the second equalization parameter according to the number of the first pattern symbol and the second pattern symbol.

The de-Qing loss and phase imbalance caused by the inherent capacitance of a switched resistance, such as a MOSFET with a resistor, can be reduced by using a shunting switch across the resistor that is in series with the resistor's switch. The shunting switch shorts across the resistor when the resistor's switch is open and in reference mode, thereby significantly reducing the resistance in series with the inherent capacitance of the open resistor's switch.
