Title:
DIELECTRIC SUBSTRATE WITH SELECTIVELY CONTROLLED EFFECTIVE PERMITTIVITY AND LOSS TANGENT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3920279
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a selected portion of a substrate to particularly have desired dielectric characteristics by providing remarkable flexibility for an RF designer and basically selecting a dielectric thickness without requiring a change that requires costs, the flexibility of said approach giving control to the RF designer without changing working steps and approximately without restricting an effective permittivity and a loss tangent.
SOLUTION: A substrate (300) for an RF device includes a plurality of layers (102) of dielectric materials cofired in a stack. The plurality of layers (102) are formed of materials having permittivities. Selected one of the layers (102) has a pattern of perforation (106) formed in at least one perforated area (104). The perforated areas (104) are generally aligned with one another in the stack to lower one or more of an effective value of a permittivity and a loss tangent in a least one spatially defined region (504) of the substrate (300).
