In a high speed transmission wireless network, the quality, security, reliability, and high speed transmission rate of a communication service may depend on a communication module. The antenna in the communication module is the main component that determines the quality of the communication system. As the wireless communication network environment is established, the demand for a communication module having an excellent antenna is increasing. In particular, a communication module optimized for high integration and high efficiency for building a wireless network between portable devices and other electronic devices has been in the spotlight.

In general, when designing an amplifier included in the communication module, the amplifier is designed to have an output power corresponding to the maximum output power of the communication module. Accordingly, when the communication module operates at a lower output power than the maximum output power, the efficiency of the amplifier may be lowered due to the characteristics of the amplifier having the highest efficiency at the maximum output power.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, by using a bonding wire provided in a semiconductor package process as an antenna, a micro-antenna may be implemented without developing a separate manufacturing process. As a result, a monopole bonding wire antenna communication module, which is inexpensive and includes an ultra-small antenna and is optimized for a highly integrated communication module that can be utilized in various communication systems and electronic devices including a wireless network, may be provided.

When the semiconductor chip SC1 includes one amplifier provided by using a CMOS process, the reliability of the amplifier may be lowered due to the constraint of the output power of the amplifier. For example, in general, an amplifier provided using a CMOS process is limited by a hot carrier effect, and the like, and the output power that can be used with reliability may be about 10 dBm. Accordingly, there is a limitation that amplifiers provided using CMOS processes cannot be used in communication systems that require output powers of around 30 dBm. Accordingly, in a communication system requiring an output power of about 30 dBm, an amplifier implemented with a compound semiconductor has been used.

However, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the plurality of antennas output the output signals each having the same phase to form one wide area signal, so that each of the plurality of amplifiers Amp1 to Amp4 The output powers may be small compared with the case where one amplifier is disposed on the semiconductor chip SC1. For example, when the semiconductor chip SC1 includes six amplifiers provided by using a CMOS process having an output power of 10 dBm, the output signals of 10 dBm output by each amplifier are about 28 dBm high power wide area signals. Can be combined. Accordingly, the same effect as that of the amplifier arrangement having an output power of 28 dBm can be exhibited. Accordingly, the plurality of amplifiers Amp1 to Amp4 may not only be implemented as compound semiconductors, but also may be implemented as low cost CMOS, and thus a low cost communication module may be provided.

On the other hand, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of switch elements (S1 ~ S4) for connecting the transceiver (Tx / Rx) and the plurality of amplifiers (Amp1 ~ Amp4) on the semiconductor chip (SC1), respectively By the arrangement, whether each of the plurality of amplifiers Amp1 to Amp4 is operated may be controlled. Therefore, according to the intensity of the output of the wide-area signal required, the operation of each of the plurality of amplifiers Amp1 to Amp4 may be adjusted by the plurality of switches S1 to S4. That is, by controlling the operation of each of the amplifiers, it is possible to implement the maximum output power of the output signal required by the communication module, even if the communication module operates at an output power lower than the maximum output power, each amplifier is the maximum It can operate with output power of. For example, if the necessary strength of the wide area signal is 28 dBm, the maximum output of the amplifier is 10 dBm, and the semiconductor chip SC1 includes eight amplifiers, six of the eight amplifiers operate at 10 dBm. It can output 28dBm wide area signal. Depending on the output power required by the communication module, the amplifiers can operate at maximum output power. Accordingly, amplifiers operating among the plurality of amplifiers can operate at the highest efficiency, and thus a communication module optimized for high efficiency can be provided.
