RF TERMINATING RESISTOR OF FLANGED CONSTRUCTION

摘要

In the case of an RF terminating resistor with a flange body (10) and a planar layer structure (16, 18, 20) which is arranged on it and, on an upper face (14) of a substrate (12), has a resistance layer (16) for conversion of RF energy to heat, an input conductor track (18) for supplying RF energy, and an earth connection conductor track (20) for electrical connection to an earth contact on the flange body (12), with the input conductor track (18) being electrically connected to a first end of the resistance layer (16), with the earth connection conductor track (20) being electrically connected to a second end of the resistance layer (16) opposite the first end, and with the substrate (12) having a contact face (22), facing away from the layer structure (16, 18, 20), which rests on the flange body, the arrangement is designed such that, on a first edge (24) which faces the earth connection conductor track (20) on the substrate (12), the flange body (10) is bent around in a direction parallel to this edge (24) over at least one predetermined section, and a predetermined section is bent around in a direction at right angles to this edge (24), such that the bent-around section (26) of the flange body (10) extends in a space between a first plane, defined by the contact face (22) of the substrate (12), and a second plane, defined by the upper face (14) of the substrate (12), with the substrate (12) abutting on the bent-around section (26) of the flange body (10) with a face (28) which connects the contact face (22) of the substrate (12) to the upper face (14) of the substrate (12) and faces the earth connection conductor track (20) on the upper face (14) of the substrate (12).
