Abstract :
This paper presents, the design, realization and measured results of a highly integrated Multi-Chip-Module (MCM) developed for X-band radar applications. The MCM is built up in a LTCC substrate. Embedded within the substrate is a bandpass stripline filter. The main functionality is realized by two multi-function MMIC. The MCM is an integral part of a future multi-channel AESA radar system.
