The above and other features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent by describing in detail embodiments thereof with reference to the attached drawings in which:
Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. However, embodiments are not limited to the embodiments illustrated hereinafter, and the embodiments herein are rather introduced to provide easy and complete understanding of the scope and spirit of embodiments. In the drawings, the thicknesses of layers and regions are exaggerated for clarity.
It will be understood that when an element, such as a layer, a region, or a substrate, is referred to as being “on,” “connected to” or “coupled to” another element, it may be directly on, connected or coupled to the other element or intervening elements may be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly on,” “directly connected to” or “directly coupled to” another element or layer, there are no intervening elements or layers present. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
It will be understood that, although the terms first, second, third, etc., may be used herein to describe various elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or section from another element, component, region, layer or section. Thus, a first element, component, region, layer or section discussed below could be termed a second element, component, region, layer or section without departing from the teachings of embodiments.
Spatially relative terms, such as “above,” “upper,” “beneath,” “below,” “lower,” and the like, may be used herein for ease of description to describe one element or feature's relationship to another element(s) or feature(s) as illustrated in the figures. It will be understood that the spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” other elements or features would then be oriented “above” the other elements or features. Thus, the term “above” may encompass both an orientation of above and below. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.
The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of embodiments. As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will be further understood that the terms “comprises” and/or “comprising” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.
Embodiments of the invention are described herein with reference to schematic illustrations of idealized embodiments (and intermediate structures) of the invention. As such, variations from the shapes of the illustrations as a result, for example, of manufacturing techniques and/or tolerances, are to be expected. Thus, the embodiments of the invention should not be construed as limited to the particular shapes of regions illustrated herein, but are to include deviations in shapes that result, for example, from manufacturing.

The antenna module package 1000 may include the extended NFC antenna loop 346 provided on a surface of the substrate 200 used to mount the first antenna chip 140 thereon, i.e., the top surface 200a of the substrate 200, to perform an NFC antenna function in addition to the above-described wireless card payment antenna function. The antenna module package 1000 may further include the NFC matching elements 245. Accordingly, one end of the extended NFC antenna loop 346 may be electrically connected to the first antenna chip 140, the NFC matching elements 245, and the NFC connection terminals 430 using a conductive line pattern and a via pattern 500 penetrating through the substrate 200. Herein, the structure or technology of the via pattern 500 is well known and thus a detailed description thereof is omitted.
That is, referring to
One end of the first antenna chip 140 may be electrically connected to the extended NFC antenna loop 346, and another end of the first antenna chip 140 may be electrically connected to the NFC matching elements 245. One end of the NFC matching elements 245 may be electrically connected to the extended NFC antenna loop 346. The extended NFC antenna loop 346 may be provided near the outermost part of the top surface 200a of the substrate 200 or on a part of the substrate 200 to be bent at least one time. The first antenna chip 140, the NFC matching elements 245, the extended NFC antenna loop 346, and the NFC connection terminals 430 may be electrically connected to each other using two or more via patterns 500 penetrating through the substrate 200.
Furthermore, the antenna module package 1000 may perform a wireless charging antenna function in addition to the above-described functions. The extended wireless charging antenna loop 348 may be provided on a surface of the substrate 200 used to mount the second antenna chip 248b thereon separately from the first antenna chip 140, i.e., the top surface 200a of the substrate 200. The antenna module package 1000 may further include the wireless charging matching elements 247. Accordingly, one end of the extended wireless charging antenna loop 348 may be electrically connected to the second antenna chip 248, the wireless charging matching elements 247, and the wireless charging connection terminals 432 using a conductive line pattern and a via pattern 500 penetrating through the substrate 200.
That is, referring to
One end of the first antenna chip 140 may be electrically connected to the extended NFC antenna loop 346, and another end of the first antenna chip 140 may be electrically connected to the NFC matching elements 245. The extended NFC antenna loop 346 may be provided on the top surface 200a of the substrate 200 or on a part of the substrate 200 to be bent at least one time. The first antenna chip 140, the extended NFC antenna loop 346, and the NFC connection terminals 430 may be electrically connected to each other using two or more via patterns 500 penetrating through the substrate 200.
In addition, the extended NFC antenna loop 346 and the extended wireless charging antenna loop 348 may be provided by winding conductive line patterns multiple times around the center of the top surface 200a of the substrate 200 (about an axis perpendicular to the surface 200a) counterclockwise.
Although not shown in
That is, a plurality of lines may be wound in a counterclockwise direction about an axis perpendicular to the substrate 200, and the extended wireless charging antenna loop 348 may be produced using a via pattern 500 provided in the substrate 200. The extended NFC antenna loop 346 may form a loop surrounding the outermost part of the extended wireless charging antenna loop 348, and may be electrically connected to other parts using via patterns 500 other than the via pattern 500 connected to the extended wireless charging antenna loop 348. Herein, a loop has an arbitrary shape capable of generating inductance. In addition, the loop is not limited to a closed loop.
The length of the extended NFC antenna loop 346 may be set in such a manner that a ratio of an inductance value generated by the extended NFC antenna loop 346 to an inductance value generated by the first antenna chip 140 illustrated in
The conductive line pattern illustrated in
The present inventors discovered that, to allow the extended NFC antenna loop 346 configured as a conductive pattern to serve as an auxiliary antenna, an inductance value generated by the extended NFC antenna loop 346 should be equal to or greater than a predetermined ratio compared to an inductance value generated by the first antenna chip 140.
Table 1 shows a result of testing whether the extended NFC antenna loop 346 functions as an auxiliary NFC antenna, based on an inductance value generated by the extended NFC antenna loop 346 when an inductance value generated by the first antenna chip 140 is 0.56 pH.
Referring to Experimental Example 1, when the length of the extended NFC antenna loop 346 forming a loop is 34 mm, the inductance value generated by the extended NFC antenna loop 346 is 0.04 pH but the extended NFC antenna loop 346 does not function as an auxiliary NFC antenna. That is, when the inductance value generated by the extended NFC antenna loop 346 is only 6% of the inductance value generated by the first antenna chip 140, although the extended NFC antenna loop 346 configured as an extended antenna is employed, an NFC readable distance is not increased.
On the contrary, referring to Experimental Example 4, when the length of the extended NFC antenna loop 346 forming a loop is 47 mm, the inductance value generated by the extended NFC antenna loop 346 is 0.08 pH and the extended NFC antenna loop 346 functions as an auxiliary NFC antenna. That is, when the inductance value generated by the extended NFC antenna loop 346 reaches 13% of the inductance value generated by the first antenna chip 140, an NFC readable distance is increased due to the extended NFC antenna loop 346 configured as an extended antenna.
As shown in Experimental Examples 1 to 5, by ensuring a predetermined or longer length of the extended NFC antenna loop 346 configured as an extended antenna, when the ratio of the inductance value generated by the extended NFC antenna loop 346 to the inductance value generated by the first antenna chip 140 is equal to or greater than a predetermined ratio (e.g., 13%), an NFC readable distance is increased due to the extended NFC antenna loop 346 configured as an extended antenna.
As described above in relation to Table 1, by securing a predetermined or longer length of an extended antenna, when the ratio of the inductance value generated by the extended NFC antenna loop 346 to the inductance value generated by the first antenna chip 140 is equal to or greater than a predetermined ratio (e.g., 13%), an NFC readable distance is increased due to the extended antenna.
In addition, for example, an NFC communication frequency band of 13.56 MHz may be generated using resonance generated by the first antenna chip 140 and the capacitors serving as the NFC matching elements 245, to communicate with an NFC device.
The first antenna chip 140 corresponds to an inductor. Although not shown in
In addition, the first antenna chip 140 may support, for example, near field communication (NFC). The first antenna chip 140 may include an inductor capable of resonating in an NFC frequency band, and may have one of various wire-winding structures. For example, the first antenna chip 140 may have a form of a chip as illustrated in (a) and (b) of
Furthermore, the first antenna chip 140 according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include at least one selected from the group consisting of a first capacitor, a second capacitor, and an NFC control IC.
In an NFC antenna according to a comparative example of the present invention, when a battery pack is assembled, a film-shaped NFC antenna is provided and bonded using soldering. However, the antenna soldering process may be omitted by employing the first antenna chip 140 according to an embodiment of the present invention, and an overall shearing strength may be improved by mounting and encapsulating the first antenna chip 140 in the form of a chip.
Referring to (a) and (b) of
First, a wire-winding structure illustrated in (a) of
Second, a plurality of the first antenna chips 140 each including a wire-winding structure illustrated in (b) of
Third, a plurality of the first antenna chips 140 spaced apart from each other may be provided. Some of the first antenna chips 140 may include coils 140c having a first winding direction as illustrated in (a) of
If an NFC antenna has a form of a chip, the NFC antenna may include both a chip-type first antenna structure having the wire-winding structure of the first winding direction, and a chip-type second antenna structure having the wire-winding structure of the second winding direction. Alternatively, the NFC antenna may include both the wire-winding structure including the coil 140c having the first winding direction and the wire-winding structure including the coil 140c having the second winding direction in a single chip including the first antenna chip 140. In this case, NFC communication may be implemented even when different wire-winding structures are not provided in parallel to each other but form an arbitrary angle therebetween, and the sensitivity of NFC communication may be improved.
The wire-winding structure of the first antenna chip 140 has been described above as, for example, a coiling structure for winding a coil around a core. However, the first antenna chip 140 according to the technical idea of the present invention is not limited to the above coiling structure and may also be implemented by, for example, patterning a conductive material.
On the contrary, the extended wireless charging antenna loop 348 illustrated in
Referring to (c) and (d) of
For example, a wireless card payment frequency band of about 250 kHz may be generated using resonance generated by the second antenna chip 248 and the capacitors serving as the wireless card payment matching elements 249, to communicate with a mobile payment system. Herein, the frequency band of about 250 kHz may be changed depending on wireless transmission/reception frequency bands allowed to be used in Korea or other countries.
In addition, the antenna module package 1000 may secure inductance by connecting an additional inductor or chip as well as the extended NFC antenna loop 346 and the extended wireless charging antenna loop 348.
Shortly, the antenna module package 1000 may include the wireless card payment antenna structure 1300 mounted on the substrate 200 and including the first antenna chip 140 and the wireless card payment matching elements 249 electrically connected to the first antenna chip 140, and the NFC antenna structure 1100 mounted on the substrate 200, sharing the first antenna chip 140, and including the extended NFC antenna loop 346 and the NFC matching elements 245 electrically connected to the first antenna chip 140. Furthermore, the antenna module package 1000 may include a wireless charging antenna structure 1200 including the extended wireless charging antenna loop 348 and the wireless charging matching elements 247 electrically connected to the second antenna chip 248.

The first inductor L1 may perform at least one of the wireless card payment antenna function and the NFC antenna function, or simultaneously perform the two antenna functions. Furthermore, each of the first and second capacitors C1 and C2 may include one or more capacitors.
Specifically, two ends of the first path capable of performing the wireless card payment antenna function serve as wireless card payment connection terminals M+ and M− connectable to external connection terminals of a battery protection circuit package, or a main set. The wireless card payment connection terminals M+ and M−, the first inductor L1, and the first capacitor C1 may be electrically connected to each other to secure inductance used to perform a magnetic secure connection function.
In addition, two ends of the second path capable of performing the NFC antenna function serve as NFC connection terminals N+ and N− connectable to external connection terminals of a battery protection circuit package, or a main set. The NFC connection terminals N+ and N−, the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the second capacitor C2 may be electrically connected to each other to secure inductance used to perform the NFC antenna function.
Lastly, two ends of the third path capable of performing the wireless charging antenna function serve as wireless charging connection terminals W+ and W− connectable to external connection terminals of a battery protection circuit package, or a main set. The third inductor L3 and the third capacitor C3 electrically connected to the wireless charging connection terminals W+ and W− may be used to perform the wireless charging antenna function. Alternatively, the wireless charging connection terminals W+ and W−, the third inductor L3, the fourth inductor L4, and the third capacitor C3 may be electrically connected to each other to secure inductance used to perform the wireless charging antenna function. The third capacitor C3 may include one or more capacitors.
Herein, an inductor may be understood as an element for storing or emitting magnetic energy, and a capacitor may be understood as an element for storing or emitting electric energy. In the antenna module package circuit 2100, a different value is obtained depending on a connection structure (serial connection or parallel connection) of the inductor and the capacitor.
The inductor and the capacitor have opposite frequency characteristics. If the inductor and the capacitor are connected in series to each other, when the same impedance is obtained in a specific frequency (resonance frequency) band, pushing and pulling forces thereof equilibrate. That is, when impedance has the minimum value, an applied signal (current) has the maximum value and resonance occurs in a specific frequency band.
Otherwise, if the inductor and the capacitor are connected in parallel to each other, when impedance has the maximum value, an applied signal (current) has the minimum value and a specific frequency band is blocked.
In the antenna module package circuit 2100, when inductance values of inductors of different communication bands are compared, the largest inductance value is obtained in a wireless charging frequency band, the second largest inductance value is obtained in an NFC frequency band, and the smallest inductance value is obtained in a wireless card payment frequency band. Accordingly, the circuit configuration based on the inductance value of each antenna per communication band may be expressed as given by Equations 1 to 3.
LMST=L1 [Equation 1]
(where LMST denotes an inductance value of an inductor corresponding to a wireless card payment frequency band, and L1 denotes an inductance value of a first inductor.)

+L
4 [Equation 3]
(where LWPC denotes an inductance value of an inductor corresponding to a wireless charging frequency band, L3 denotes an inductance value of a third inductor, and L4 denotes an inductance value of a fourth inductor.)
Accordingly, a plurality of inductors may be connected in series to at least any one inductor and thus the inductance value of inductors per communication band may be increased. Alternatively, a plurality of inductors may be connected in parallel to at least any one inductor and thus the inductance value of inductors per communication band may be reduced.
That is, since the inductance value in the frequency band of the first path is less than the inductance value in the frequency band of the second path and the inductance value in the frequency band of the second path is less than the inductance value in the frequency band of the third path, compared to the wireless card payment antenna, the NFC antenna may be configured as a circuit including a larger number of inductors connected in serial to each other. Furthermore, compared to the NFC antenna, the wireless charging antenna may be configured as a circuit including a larger number of inductors connected in serial to each other. Herein, the inductor may be implemented using one of various elements such as a printed circuit board (PCB), a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB), or a coil.
The present invention also provides a battery pack. Herein, although not shown in any drawing, the battery pack may include a battery bare cell. Furthermore, the battery pack may include a battery protection circuit element connected to the battery bare cell and including a protection IC, a field effect transistor (FET), and one or more passive elements, and the antenna module package 1000 electrically connected to the battery protection circuit element.
As described above in relation to
The present invention also provides a mobile device. Herein, although not shown in any drawing, the mobile device may include a main board, the antenna module package 1000 electrically connected to the main board and described above in relation to
According to a conventional technology, an NFC antenna and a wireless charging antenna are used as radio frequency (RF) antennas and thus mounting positions thereof are very restrictive due to large sizes thereof. In addition, if a battery pack is manufactured by employing a metal body, antenna performance is degraded. Furthermore, if an antenna chip is used, a recognition range or distance is restricted due to a small size thereof and thus antenna performance is degraded.
To solve the above problems, an antenna module package according to an embodiment of the present invention may achieve a high integration and a small size, and may provide freedom to select antenna locations. Furthermore, an antenna array using a plurality of antenna chips or a combination of the antenna array and extended antenna loops may increase an antenna recognition range or distance, and thus the antenna module package may improve antenna performance.
Besides, the antenna module package may further include a wireless card payment antenna structure in addition to an NFC antenna structure and a wireless charging antenna structure and may be embedded in a single chip. Accordingly, the NFC antenna structure may share a first antenna chip included in the wireless card payment antenna structure and thus an area for transmission and reception of the antenna module package may be minimized. Furthermore, inductance values corresponding to other frequency bands may be ensured and thus various antenna functions may be performed in multiple frequency bands using inductors.
In addition, a battery pack according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a battery bare cell, a battery protection circuit element electrically connected to the battery bare cell and including a protection IC, an FET, and one or more passive elements, and the antenna module package 1000 described above in relation to
As described above, according to an embodiment of the present invention, an antenna module package including a wireless card payment antenna, an NFC antenna, and a wireless charging antenna, and capable of achieving a high integration and a small size, solving personal security problems, and improving antenna performance, an antenna module package circuit, a battery pack including the same, and a mobile device including the same may be implemented. However, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above effects.
