The present invention relates to the field of integrating electronic systems that operate at mm-wave and THz frequencies. A monolithic multichip package, a carrier structure for such a package as well as manufacturing methods for manufacturing such a package and such a carrier structure are proposed to obtain a package that fully shields different functions of the mm-wave/THz system. The package is poured into place by polymerizing photo sensitive monomers. It gradually grows around and above the MMICs (Monolithically Microwave Integrated Circuit) making connection to the MMICs but recessing the high frequency areas of the chip. The proposed approach leads to functional blocks that are electromagnetically completely shielded. These units can be combined and cascaded according to system needs.

Method of manufacturing a package for embedding one or more electronic components

A feeding structure including a carrier substrate, a top conductor plane of a cavity formed in the carrier substrate, a feedline substrate covering the top conductor plane, a signal conductor of a feedline, the signal conductor being formed in or on the feedline substrate opposite the top conductor plane, a via probe connected to the signal conductor and leading through the feedline substrate and the top conductor plane into the cavity, a ring-shaped aperture formed in the top conductor plane around the via probe, and at least one slot-shaped aperture formed in the top conductor plane starting at the ring-shaped aperture and leading away from the via probe.

Feeding structure for cavity resonators

The present invention provides a space saving and simply implementable planar integrated switching device comprising at least two CPW-slotline transition units each including an access for inputting and/or outputting a transmission signal, a slotline connecting said at least two CPW-slotline transition units, and a switching element arranged on said slotline between said at least two CPW-slotline transition units for switching the transmission signal over said slotline on and off under control of a switch control signal.
