Abstract

The purpose of this work is to establish accurate broadband models of a complete CPW library of passive elements. These models are based on a distributed CPW line model, geometrical data and physical process parameters only and neither fitting parameter nor specific test structures are required. This whole CPW library can be directly introduced in any CAD packages. Comparison between measurement and models performed from 0.5 GHz to 110 GHz show the validity of the proposed approach. A multimode full-wave analysis has been used to verify the efficiency of air-bridges to suppress the slot-line mode.
