<p>A surface mountable microwave IC package with broad bandwidth and low loss has been developed. The impedance mismatch due to the electrical discontinuity of the I/O pads and via holes in the structure is compensated. The compensation structure has two features. In one feature, ground planes are printed on both sides of a dielectric substrate to increase the distributed capacitance between the signal line and the ground, thereby obtaining a matched characteristic impedance. In the second feature, two grounding via holes are used to compensate for the mismatch of the characteristic impedance due to the feedthrough connection of the signal line from the back-side to the front-side of the substrate. <IMAGE></p> |
