Coaxial transitions for CPW-to-CPW flip chip interconnects

Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2007

A novel coaxial transition for CPW-to-CPW flip chip interconnect is presented and experimentally demonstrated. To realise the coaxial transition on the CPW circuit, benzocyclobutene was used as the interlayer dielectric between the vertical coaxial transition and the CPW circuit. The coaxial interconnect structure was successfully fabricated and RF characterised to 67 GHz. The structure showed excellent interconnect performance from DC up to 55 GHz with low return loss below 20 dB and low insertion loss less
