Millimeter-wave broadband transition of microstrip line on thin to thick substrates

摘要

Embodiments are directed to a structure comprising: a first substrate section having a first thickness, a second substrate section having a second thickness different from the first thickness, a plurality of vias configured to couple a first ground plane associated with the first substrate section and a second ground plane associated with the second substrate section, and a microstrip comprising: a first section associated with the first substrate section and having a first width, a second section associated with the second substrate section and having a second width different from the first width, and a taper between the first width and the second width.
