Abstract
A filter assembly in a multi-layer printed wiring board. One or more conductors is formed on an internal layer of a printed wiring board. Surrounding dielectric layers and ground layers form, together with the conductors of the internal layer, microstrip or stripline transmission lines and distributed element filters. The filter assembly may include a plurality of internal conductive layers, each sandwiched between dielectric layers and ground layers, and each internal layer may include a plurality of distributed element filters. Connections from each filter to the surface of the filter assembly are formed by vias, and connections from the surface of the filter assembly to a host board are formed by solder joints.
