Integrated circuit device and low noise block down converter including same
First Claim
1. An integrated circuit device which has N inputs and M outputs, each of N input signals supplied to the respective N inputs being divided into two divided input signals,the integrated circuit device comprising:
- N amplification sections each of which amplifies one of said divided input signals;
N bandwidth conversion section each of which subjects, to frequency conversion, the other one of said divided input signals; and
a 2N×
M switch section which (i) receives 2N input signals that are made up of 2N output signals supplied from the N amplification sections and the N bandwidth conversion sections, and (ii) is controlled so as to output a signal, which is selected from said 2N input signals, to an output selected from said M outputs.

Abstract
A switch block 1 includes: N inputs; M outputs; N amplification sections each of which amplifies one of each pair of 2N input signals which are generated by dividing N input signals supplied to the N inputs in two; N bandwidth conversion sections each of which subjects, to frequency conversion, the other one of each pair of 2N input signals; and a 2N×M switch section which outputs the 2N output signals, which are supplied from the N amplification sections and the N bandwidth conversion sections, to either: one of the M outputs; or none of the M outputs. With this arrangement, it is possible to provide a signal recombination circuit which can reduce the leakage of the input signals.
