  • Abstract
    When a microwave integrated circuit is enclosed in a package, the top cover causes the transmission lines used in the circuit to become leaky at a lower frequency than otherwise. This effect is found to be particularly dramatic for microstrip line, and the leakage is strong enough to produce crosstalk that can ruin the performance of the circuit.
