Parallel plate cavity mode suppression in microstrip circuit packages using a lid of nails
Journal article, 2009

The suppression of parallel plate and cavity modes in shielded microstrip circuits is presented. To this aim a textured metal lid consisting of periodically located pins known as a bed of nails is employed. The mode suppression has a bandwidth of more than 2:1, and it does not interfere much with the microstrip circuit. Thereby, this mode suppression technique introduces a new advantageous packaging technology for high frequency circuits. © 2006 IEEE.
