Electromagnetic simulation of the effects of dielectric and metal thicknesses on the performance of multilayer MMIC lowpass filter
Student Conference on Research and Development - Trang 418-421
Tóm tắt
The authors report on the effects of dielectric and metal thicknesses on the performance of a multilayer monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) lowpass filter. An electromagnetic simulator, Sonnet, is used to characterize and predict the effect of both factors on the filter response. Results of this simulation show that the filter operates with optimum performance when the metal and polyimide thicknesses are 5 /spl mu/m each.
