Abstract :
This paper introduces Low Temperature Co-Fired Ceramics (LTCC) technology platform which is an integration platform for multi chip modules. LTCC platform is also well suited for the realization of antenna arrays, filters and other passives from RF to millimeter wave frequencies. Examples of realized components and modules are presented in the paper.
