Design and Implementation of a LTCC-Based Receiver Front-End Module

Low temperature co-fired ceramic is a new technology for realizing microwave circuit with small size and high reliability. In this paper, using (LTCC) technology and micro-assembly technology, a receiver front-end in S-band is realized and tested. Results show that the receiver front-end realizes the design target. It has great advantages in volume and weight compared with traditional module when their circuit performance is equal.
