Abstract:
A circuit package comprising:a substrate having a dielectric constant that is substantially equal to a dielectric constant of a mother PC board on which said substrate is mounted;a metalization pattern disposed upon at least one major surface of said substrate, said metalization pattern being configured as a coplanar waveguide structure having transmission structures substantially uniform in width and thickness and being in electrical communication with said mother PC board;a microwave monolithic integrated circuit in electrical communication with said coplanar waveguide structure; andat least two conductively filled slots, each of said slots having widths that substantially match a width of said coplanar waveguide structure, each of said slots having thicknesses that are substantially smaller than said widths of said slots, and each of said slots being in electrical communication with said coplanar waveguide structure and said microwave monolithic integrated circuit.
