FLEXIBLE CIRCUIT LEADS IN PACKAGING FOR RADIO FREQUENCY DEVICES AND METHODS THEREOF

摘要

A packaged RF device is provided that can provide improved performance and flexibility though the use of flexible circuit leads. The RF device includes at least one integrated circuit (IC) die configured to implement the RF device. The IC die is contained inside a package. In accordance with the embodiments described herein, a flexible circuit is implemented as a lead. Specifically, the flexible circuit lead is coupled to the at least one IC die inside the package and extends to outside the package, the flexible circuit lead thus providing an electrical connection to the at least one IC die inside the package.
