  • Abstract
    This paper presents results from the development effort of Si micromachined three-dimensional high density circuits for W-band operation. Measurements of the performance of a power distribution network in a multilayer environment show that on-wafer packaging improves performance and allows for high density integration, small size, and considerably reduced cost.
