3 Introduction Most common applications of Integrated passives devices (IPDs) are in the front-end of wireless systems, between the antenna and transceiver. Integrated passives devices (IPDs) based on semiconductor processes offer the advantage of excellent parameter control, and allow simplified and compact module design. IPD processes can be used to make high density capacitors, high Q inductors and large value resistors. The Ultra Wide Band (UWB) band-pass-filter developed in this paper has the smallest size while achieving equivalent electrical performance. In this paper, an UWB Band-pass-filter is made using lumped integrated t passive devise technology on a silicon substrate t for wireless applications. 3

20 Tripe wire-bond inductance model Figure 12 shows a comparison of the simulated result versus measurement using the simple triple wire bond inductance model. The simple model does not account for mutual interactions between the wire bonds, which become more important at higher frequencies. It can be seen that the agreement between the two is poor. Because of the good agreement in the flip- chip case, it was suspected the cause of the discrepancy was in the simple inductance model used for the wire bonds. db) el data (S 11,S 21 ata (S 11, S 21 db) Simple WB mod Measurement da Frequency (GHz) Simple WB model data Measurement data Figure 12: Measurement versus simulation using the simple triple wire-bond inductance models for wire-bonding IPD. 20

23 Tripe wire-bond inductance model An improved circuit-level simulation was done using the Philips /TU Delft wire-bond models in ADS. These account for a more detailed shape of the wire bond and also account for mutual inductances between all of the wires. The comparison between the IPD characteristics using the simple triple wire bond model and the more accurate Philips/TU Delft model is shown in Figure 13.

25 Conclusions The design and implementation of a silicon based band-pass-filter for Ultra Wide Band applications have been presented. Excellent filter properties are obtained from the UWB band-pass- filter of flip-chip die. For wire bondable IPDs working at high frequencies (such as this UWB filter), simple inductance model for multiple wires is not good enough for designs. More advanced coupled-wire models in ADS have shown better predictions of the wire behaviors. The IPD technology is especially well suited for UWB applications because of its excellent parameter control and enabling smaller from-factors. 25
