Description

  The present invention relates to a wireless communication device, and more particularly to a technique for downsizing the device.

  In recent years, wireless communication devices are compatible with a plurality of communication methods, and are equipped with an antenna corresponding to each communication method. For example, a smartphone as a wireless communication device includes a long term evolution (LTE), a wireless LAN (Local Area Network) function corresponding to the IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) 802.11 standard, Bluetooth (registered trademark), and the like. Corresponding to a plurality of communication methods, each communication method is provided with an antenna. Each communication method differs in communication speed, power consumption, area of communicable area, and the like. The wireless communication apparatus selects a communication method according to the wireless communication status such as the radio wave reception status.

  For example, when the user receives a large amount of data such as moving image data, the wireless communication device performs wireless communication by LTE with priority on the communication speed. When it is desired to reduce the power consumption of the wireless communication device, the wireless communication device performs wireless communication by switching the communication method from LTE to a wireless LAN function, for example.

  In addition, wireless communication devices are required to have higher functionality and smaller size. For example, there is one that achieves high performance of an antenna and a small area of a substrate by using a housing of a wireless communication device as an antenna (or attaching an antenna to the housing). A spring pin connector (pogo pin) or the like is used to connect the antenna and the substrate.

  The spring pin connector is composed of a pin, a tube, and a spring. A pin is a member for contacting the object to which the spring pin connector is connected. The spring contracts the pin. In the spring pin connector, for example, a tube portion is attached to a substrate, and the pin is pressed against an object to be connected to the spring pin connector. This makes it possible to connect the connection target and the substrate in a small space. Regarding the spring pin connector, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-42986 (Patent Document 1) discloses a connector having a circuit switching function, and the impedance of a signal transmission path is stabilized.

  By the way, these wireless communication devices require evaluation of RF (Radio Frequency) characteristics of wireless communication in various scenes such as at the time of manufacture and failure. For example, RF characteristics are evaluated to detect defective products during the manufacture of a wireless communication device. Also, at the time of failure repair of the wireless communication device, the RF characteristics are evaluated in order to identify the failure location and confirm whether the repair has been performed normally. Such evaluation of RF characteristics is conventionally realized by mounting an RF coaxial connector on a substrate and inserting a high-frequency coaxial cable into the RF connector when verifying the RF characteristics.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the same parts are denoted by the same reference numerals. Their names and functions are also the same. Therefore, detailed description thereof will not be repeated.

<Configuration of related technologies>
In order to compare with the wireless communication apparatus of one embodiment, a related technique will be described.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of a related-art wireless communication device 1. In FIG. 1, a related-art wireless communication device 1 is shown in an exploded manner of a substrate 11, an inner lid 12, and an outer lid 13. The substrate 11 includes an RF coaxial connector 21 and a spring pin connector 22 (in FIG. 1, two spring pin connectors, ie, a spring pin connector 22A and a spring pin connector 22B are shown). Although not shown, the wireless communication device 1 includes a high frequency modulator / demodulator, baseband modem, memory, graphic processor, core processor, display, speaker, microphone terminal, power supply circuit, memory card connector, sound synthesizer, It includes a camera module, a GPS (Global Positioning System) antenna, and the like, and includes a plurality of antennas corresponding to a plurality of communication methods, and communicates with other wireless communication devices.

  The related-art wireless communication device 1 includes an RF coaxial connector 21 for inspecting RF (Radio Frequency) characteristics. The RF coaxial connector 21 is a connector for accepting mounting of an RF inspection probe. The RF coaxial connector 21 is disposed for each antenna. An RF characteristic inspector attaches an RF inspection probe (for example, a high-frequency coaxial cable) connected to the RF measuring instrument to the RF coaxial connector 21 during the inspection.

  One RF coaxial connector 21 occupies a size of about 2.2 mm in length × 2.2 mm in width × 1.0 mm in height on the substrate 11, for example. For example, when the wireless communication apparatus 1 includes an antenna of each communication method corresponding to, for example, LTE, IEEE 802.11 standard wireless LAN function, Bluetooth (registered trademark), or the like as a plurality of communication methods, the RF coaxial connector 21 Are arranged corresponding to each of these antennas. Therefore, the proportion of the RF coaxial connector 21 in the substrate 11 increases as the number of the RF coaxial connectors 21 installed increases.

  The inner lid 12 includes an antenna 31 and an RF connector penetration hole 32. The inner lid 12 has a through-hole for bringing the antenna 31 into contact with the spring pin connector 22 at the end of the installation location of the antenna 31. When the inner lid 12 covers the substrate 11, the antenna 31, the spring pin connector 22A, and the spring pin connector 22B come into contact with each other. The antenna 31 is connected to the substrate 11 by contacting the spring pin connector 22A and the spring pin connector 22B.

  The RF connector penetration hole 32 has a hole for guiding a high-frequency coaxial cable for inspection of RF characteristics to the RF coaxial connector 21 in a state where the inner lid 12 covers the substrate 11.

  The outer lid 13 includes a display (not shown). The wireless communication device 1 becomes a finished product by assembling the substrate 11, the inner lid 12, and the outer lid 13.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a related art substrate 11.
As described above, the related art board 11 is provided with the RF coaxial connector 21 and the spring pin connector 22, and the spring pin connector 22 is connected to the signal line 23. The signal line 23 is a signal line for outputting a high frequency signal from the RF circuit or the like on the substrate 11 to the antenna 31 and outputting a high frequency signal received by the antenna 31 to the RF circuit or the like on the substrate 11. . The RF coaxial connector 21 is provided between the RF circuit and the spring pin connector 22.

<Configuration of this embodiment>
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of the wireless communication device 2 according to the present embodiment. In FIG. 3, the wireless communication device 2 is shown in an exploded form of a substrate 51, an inner lid 52, and an outer lid 53.

  Compared with the related technology of FIG. 1, the wireless communication device 2 is different in that the RF characteristics can be inspected without providing the RF coaxial connector 21 and the RF connector through hole 32 in the related technology. In addition, the wireless communication device 2 connects the substrate and the antenna with a member having elasticity. In the present embodiment, a connector having a spring property is used as the member having elasticity, and specifically, the antenna and the substrate are connected by the spring pin connector 24. This spring-type connector is configured such that the connector contracts when a pressing pressure is applied from the side surface direction to the expansion / contraction direction. The spring pin connector of the wireless communication device 2 is shown as a spring pin connector 24 (in FIG. 3, two spring pin connectors 24A and 24B are shown). As will be described in detail later, in this embodiment, an inspector of RF characteristics inspects by inserting an RF inspection probe described later between the antenna 31 and the spring pin connector 24. The spring pin connector 24 is formed with a slope in order to make it easier to accept the pressing pressure from the cylindrical side surface in a state where the substrate and the antenna are connected by the spring pin connector 24. The spring pin connector 24 is contracted by inserting an RF inspection probe, which will be described later, into the slope. As described above, the spring connector includes a portion for receiving the pressing pressure from the side surface direction with respect to the expansion / contraction direction of the spring, so that the inspection probe can be easily inserted.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the substrate 51 of the present embodiment. Compared with the related art substrate 11, the substrate 51 is not provided with the RF coaxial connector 21. In the present embodiment, a spring pin connector 24 is shown as a spring pin connector. Thus, in this embodiment, since the RF coaxial connector 21 is not provided, the board area can be reduced as compared with the related art.

<Details of spring pin connector>
Next, the spring pin connector of this embodiment is demonstrated using another drawing.

  FIG. 5 is a view showing the spring pin connector 24. FIG. 5A shows a top view of the spring pin connector 24. FIG. 5B shows a front view of the spring pin connector 24. FIG. 5C shows details of the pin portion of the spring pin connector 24.

  As shown in FIG. 5A, the spring pin connector 24 has a cylindrical shape. As shown in FIG. 5B, the spring pin connector 24 includes a pin portion 24P and a tube portion 24Q in appearance, and the tube portion 24Q is fixed to the substrate 51. The tube portion 24Q has a spring (spring member) connected to the pin portion 24P inside. As the spring expands and contracts, the pin portion 24P expands and contracts in the cylindrical axial direction of the spring pin connector 24. For example, the spring pin connector 24 has a fixed fitting length (for example, 2.5 mm) in a state in which the spring contracts and the pin portion 24P contracts to the maximum. The pin portion 24P has a range that can be expanded and contracted.

  As shown in FIG. 5B, the pin portion 24P has a slope (notch portion 25) on the contact surface at the tip of the pin portion 24P. This notch portion 25 is used for RF inspection between an inspector of RF characteristics between the pin portion 24P and the contact target member or the like in a state where the pin portion 24P is in contact with a contact target member such as an antenna. Provided to facilitate insertion of the probe. In order to facilitate the insertion of the RF inspection probe, the notch portion 25 is formed on the side surface of the cylindrical pin portion 24P, and a part of the pressing pressure to the notch portion 25 from the side surface direction, This is converted into the contraction force of the spring of the spring pin connector 24.

  The notch 25 is formed, for example, by cutting a cylindrical pin portion on a contact surface at the tip of the pin portion of the spring pin connector with a plane passing through the approximate center of the contact surface. As shown in FIG. 5C, for example, in the spring pin connector 24, the pin portion of the spring pin connector is perpendicular to the contact surface at a maximum of 0.28 mm by a plane passing through the approximate center of the contact surface at the tip of the pin portion. It is obtained by cutting out to the extent. Thereby, the pressing pressure on the pin portion is converted into a pressure for contracting the spring.

<RF inspection probe>
The RF inspection probe will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 6 is a view showing an RF inspection probe 60 inserted between the spring pin connector 24 and the antenna. FIG. 6A shows the RF inspection probe 60 and the spring pin connector 24. FIG. 6B shows a state in which the RF inspection probe 60 is inserted between the spring pin connector 24 and the antenna 31.

  The RF inspection probe 60 includes a conductive member 61, an insulating member 62, and a coaxial cable 63, and the coaxial cable 63 is connected to the RF measuring instrument. The conductive member 61 is a conductor such as metal, and outputs a high-frequency signal flowing through the spring pin connector 24 to the RF measuring device via the coaxial cable 63. The insulating member 62 is formed of an insulating material such as plastic, and the antenna 31 and the spring pin connector 24 are insulated while the RF inspection probe 60 is inserted between the spring pin connector 24 and the antenna 31. And The insulating member 62 has a height (short portion 62A) of a surface in contact with the spring pin connector 24 so that the RF inspection probe 60 can be easily inserted between the spring pin connector 24 and the antenna 31. The size is smaller than the non-contact portion (longitudinal portion 62B) with the spring pin connector 24.

  The height of the long portion 62B and the short portion 62A is a height at which the antenna 31 and the spring pin connector 24 can be insulated, and is determined according to the range in which the spring pin connector 24 can be expanded and contracted. Also good. For example, the long portion 62B has a height of about 5 mm to 10 mm, and the short portion 62A has a height of about 2 to 3 mm. The thickness of the insulating member 62 (the width of the short portion 62A and the long portion 62B) is, for example, about 2 to 3 mm.

  As shown in FIG. 6B, an RF inspection probe 60 is inserted between the antenna 31 and the spring pin connector 24. A member for fitting the antenna 31 is attached to the shaft hole of the inner lid 52. Since the insulating member 62 is made of an insulating material, the antenna 31 and the spring pin connector 24 are in an insulated state.

  FIG. 7 shows an RF inspection probe 80 inserted between the spring pin connector 24 and the antenna. FIG. 7A shows an RF inspection probe 80. FIG. 7B shows the RF inspection probe 80 and the spring pin connector 24. FIG. 7C shows a state where the RF inspection probe 80 is inserted between the spring pin connector 24 and the antenna.

  As shown in FIG. 7A, the RF inspection probe 80 includes a conductive member 81 and a wing 82.

  The conductive member 81 and the wing 82 are both conductors. The RF inspection probe 80 is formed by bending a conductor, and realizes an RF inspection probe without using an insulating member such as plastic. As shown in FIG. 7C, when the RF inspection probe 80 is inserted between the spring pin connector 24 and the antenna 31, the wing 82 is a member for fitting the antenna 31 to the inner lid 52. A space is formed between the conductive member 81 and the antenna 31 and the RF inspection probe 80 are not in contact with each other.

<Example of Inserting RF Inspection Probe from Outside of Wireless Communication Device 2>
Next, the insertion position of the RF inspection probe and the arrangement position of the antenna 31 suitable for inserting the RF inspection probe into the wireless communication apparatus 2 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example in which an RF inspection probe is inserted from the battery pack connection portion of the wireless communication device 2. The wireless communication device 2 includes a battery pack connection terminal 91 for attaching a removable battery pack to the wireless communication device 2. The wireless communication device 2 is configured such that an RF inspection probe can be inserted into the battery pack connection terminal 91 from the outside of the wireless communication device 2. In this case, the RF inspection probe is inserted into a connection portion between the antenna 31 and the spring pin connector 24.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example in which an RF inspection probe is inserted from a card insertion slot such as a memory card provided in the wireless communication device 2. The wireless communication device 2 includes a memory card slot 92 for mounting a memory card such as a flash memory. The wireless communication device 2 is configured such that an RF inspection probe can be inserted into the memory card slot 92 from the outside of the wireless communication device 2.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example in which an RF inspection probe is inserted into the side surface of the housing when the antenna 31 is printed on the side surface of the housing of the wireless communication device 2. For example, the RF characteristic inspector inspects the RF characteristic by inserting the RF inspection probe 60 between the spring pin connector 24 and the antenna 31 when the radio communication device 2 is disassembled.

  As described above, one embodiment has been described. (1) The wireless communication device 2 of the present embodiment uses an elastic member (a spring pin connector (pogo pin), a spring, or the like) for connecting an antenna (an antenna installed in a housing, an antenna module, etc.) and a substrate. doing. A mechanism structure in which an RF inspection probe can be inserted between an elastic member such as a pogo pin or a spring and an antenna installed on the housing. (2) The antenna side of the RF inspection probe is made of a material such as plastic so that the RF inspection probe is inserted between the antenna and the spring pin connector so that insulation can be obtained wirelessly. (3) The stroke of the spring pin connector has a structure that allows sufficient RF contact in two states when an RF inspection probe is inserted and when an antenna installed on the housing is connected. (4) The signal line between the spring pin connector and the RF inspection probe has a structure in which characteristic impedance matching at the time of contact is adjusted.

  Compared with the related art, the wireless communication device 2 enables the inspection of the RF characteristics without providing the RF coaxial connector 21 and the RF connector penetration hole 32, thereby reducing the area of the substrate and reducing the size of the wireless communication device 2. It can contribute to the conversion. Furthermore, in the related art, since the RF connector is arranged corresponding to a plurality of antennas, the ratio of the RF connector to the substrate increases as the number of antennas increases. Therefore, in this embodiment that does not use an RF connector, the larger the number of antennas, the smaller the area. In addition, the cost can be reduced by not mounting the RF connector.

The conductive member 93 is connected to the RF measuring device via the coaxial cable 95. The RF characteristic inspector inspects the RF characteristic by bringing the exposed portion of the conductive member 93 into contact with the spring pin connector 24.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram showing an RF inspection probe 89 corresponding to a plurality of types of RF characteristic inspections. The RF inspection probe 89 has two conductive members (conductive member 93A and conductive member 93B). These conductive members (conductive member 93A, conductive member 93B) are covered with an insulating member 94, and in a part of the insulating member 94, these conductive members (conductive member 93A, conductive member 93B). ) Is exposed. These conductive members (conductive member 93A and conductive member 93B) are connected to the RF measuring instrument by coaxial cable 95A and coaxial cable 95B, respectively.

  Using the RF inspection probe 89, a user can inspect RF characteristics of a plurality of different frequencies. The wireless communication device 2 supports a plurality of communication methods, but the frequency bands used in these communication methods are different. Therefore, when an RF inspection probe 89 is used, an RF characteristic inspector can inspect the RF characteristic corresponding to each frequency band.
