Abstract
A multilayer radio frequency interconnect apparatus includes a plurality of laminated printed wiring boards made of a dielectric material with low loss characteristics for radio frequency electromagnetic radiation. In operation, a RF signal launches from a first signal conductor . A vertical transition from the first signal conductor to a second signal conductor is realized by a 3-wire transmission line. The center conductor of the 3-wire transmission line is a RF via . The two outer conductors are RF ground vias and connect the first RF ground conductor to the second RF ground conductor . These two RF ground vias are isolated from the ground planes which are located between RF signal layers . The advantage of this ground isolation is to maintain the 3-wire transmission line characteristic impedance and to reduce disturbance to electromagnetic fields such that a broadband design may be achieved. The RF ground vias are terminated at signal layers
