Abstract:
In one embodiment, an impedance matching network includes at least one electronically variable capacitor (EVC), each EVC comprising discrete capacitors having corresponding switches, the switches configured to switch in and out the discrete capacitors to alter a total capacitance of the EVC. Each switch includes a first terminal operably coupled to the corresponding discrete capacitor, a second terminal, and a switching circuit coupled between the first terminal and the second terminal, the switching circuit comprising a switching transistor. A tuning inductor is coupled parallel to the switching circuit. A value for the tuning inductor enables the tuning inductor to cancel a cumulative parasitic capacitance of the switching circuit.

Claim (Index 13):
The matching network of  claim 1  wherein the switching circuit further comprises:\n a first diode whose anode is operably coupled to the second terminal and whose cathode is operably coupled to a drain of the switching transistor; \n a second diode whose anode is operably coupled to the first terminal and whose cathode is operably coupled to the drain of the switching transistor and the cathode of the first diode; \n a third diode whose cathode is operably coupled to the first terminal and whose anode is operably coupled to the source of the switching transistor; and \n the fourth diode whose cathode is operably coupled to the second terminal and whose anode is operable coupled to the source of the switching transistor and the anode of the third diode.
