Abstract

This paper presents the design and measured results of a highly integrated Multi-Chip-Module (MCM) developed for a wide band Electronic Support Measure ESM) application. The MCM is based on Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) technology and the main functionality is implemented in several wide band multifunction MMICs. By using an all-level design approach, the MMICs and the MCM showed full performance after the first design iteration. Simulations and measured results show excellent agreement.
