Abstract:

The design and simulation of an integrated common mode filter (CMF) for differential data lines, like the USB 2.0 interface, is presented in this paper. The device is manufactured in a bipolar semiconductor process for the integration of diodes protecting sensitive CMOS circuits against damage by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). The filter is formed by planar coupled coils that are processed in copper/polyimide layers applied on top of silicon die. The design process is using 2.5D simulation techniques based on method of moments. Furthermore a lumped model is derived that allows exact and efficient transient simulations in SPICE [1] based simulators. The filter design itself shows strong common mode rejection in the GSM spectrum. The small size (1.34 mm x 0.95 mm) of the device makes it well suited for integration in modern mobile phone applications, to suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI) between a USB transmitter and a GSM receiver. Measurement data demonstrates the EMI protection in the GSM downlink spectrum. The dynamic resistance of the ESD diodes is derived in transmission line puls (TLP) measurements.
