Abstract :
Three dimensional (3-D) MMMC technology effectively increases the integration levels of multifunctional MMICs and achieves masterslice MMICs. The 3-D masterslice MMIC technology can be used as an advanced design method of MMICs as well as high integration levels. This paper discusses the feasibility of microwave design automation software based on the 3-D masterslice MMIC technology.
