An integrated circuit (IC) includes a first switch, a second switch, an amplifier electrically connected between the first switch and the second switch, and a base. The first switch, the second switch, and the amplifier are provided on the base. In a top view of the base, the amplifier is disposed between the first switch and the second switch.

An electronic control device includes a housing that stores a substrate on which an electronic component is mounted, a first capacitance unit formed between the housing and the electronic component, and a second capacitance unit formed between the housing and the substrate, in which a noise transmission path is formed between the housing and the substrate via the first capacitance unit and the second capacitance unit.

Mobile phones and other mobile devices communicate wirelessly by transmitting and receiving RF signals. Transmitters and receivers in wireless devices process RF signals in certain frequency ranges or bands. Signals in other frequencies can be blocked or filtered out by, for example, a lumped-element circuit or a lumped-element filter consisting of passive electrical components such as inductors, capacitors, and resistors. A passive component device, or integrated passive device, is one example of a lumped-element filter fabricated with passive components on a die. In a mobile device, a passive component device and one or more integrated circuits or other chips used for signal processing are interconnected by being mounted on (i.e., coupled to) a metallization structure or package substrate in a chip module or multi-chip module. The demand for miniaturization of hand-held mobile devices drives a need for reducing the sizes of chip modules that are inside a mobile device.

To provide a circuit module capable of reducing the influence of noise transmitted through a shield film on an inductor mounted on a substrate. A circuit module according to the present disclosure includes a substrate, an inductor mounted on a surface of the substrate, a sealing resin provided on the surface of the substrate and covering the inductor, a conductive shield film covering the sealing resin, and a wire disposed between the inductor on the surface of the substrate and the side film of the shield film. The one end portion of the wire is electrically connected to the side film. The other end portion of the wire is electrically connected to the surface of the substrate. In plan view, an imaginary straight line passing through the one end portion and the other end portion of the wire is inclined with respect to the side film.

An integrated circuit architecture and circuitry is defined by a die structure with a plurality of exposed conductive pads arranged in a grid of rows and columns. The die structure has a first operating frequency region with a first transmit and receive chain, and a second operating frequency region with a second transmit chain and a second receive chain. There is a shared region of the die structure defined by an overlapping segment of the first operating frequency region and the second operating frequency region with a shared power supply input conductive pad connected to the first transmit chain, the second transmit chain, the first receive chain, and the second receive chain, and a shared power detection output conductive pad connected to the first transmit chain and the second transmit chain.

An integrated circuit (IC) includes a first switch, a second switch, an amplifier electrically connected between the first switch and the second switch, and a base. The first switch, the second switch, and the amplifier are provided on the base. In a top view of the base, the amplifier is disposed between the first switch and the second switch.

A possible benefit of the present disclosure is to further improve a heat dissipation property of an electronic component. A high-frequency module includes a mounting substrate, a filter (for example, a transmission filter), a resin layer, a shielding layer, and a metal member. The resin layer covers at least a portion of an outer peripheral surface (for example, an outer peripheral surface) of the filter. The shielding layer covers at least a portion of the resin layer. The metal member is disposed at a first principal surface of the mounting substrate. The metal member is connected to a surface of the filter on the opposite side from the mounting substrate, the shielding layer, and the first principal surface of the mounting substrate.

Embodiments of the invention include an electrical package and methods of forming the package. In one embodiment, a transformer may be formed in the electrical package. The transformer may include a first conductive loop that is formed over a first dielectric layer. A thin dielectric spacer material may be used to separate the first conductive loop from a second conductive loop that is formed in the package. Additional embodiments of the invention include forming a capacitor formed in the electrical package. For example, the capacitor may include a first capacitor plate that is formed over a first dielectric layer. A thin dielectric spacer material may be used to separate the first capacitor plate form a second capacitor plate that is formed in the package. The thin dielectric spacer material in the transformer and capacitor allow for increased coupling factors and capacitance density in electrical components.
