  • Abstract
    A novel compact microstrip to coplanar waveguide (CPW) transition is proposed for flip-chip interconnection. Broadband performance of the transition is simulated and agrees well with measured results. A good interconnection between microstrip line on a motherboard to CPW on a flip-chip is accomplished without any vias. For 10dB return loss, the microstrip-to-CPW transition and the microstrip-to-flip-chip interconnection present 170% and 140% bandwidth, respectively.
