3 European consortium, consisting of partners: 3
4 EU funded project ARHMS Main goal: electronically steerable antenna system for mobile satellite communication between a moving car and an INMARSAT. Challenge: holding the line, while motion, speed, inclination and cross-country will constantly require reaction. (beam steering of patch antenna) Source: Daimler Chrysler Research 4
5 Beam steering requires 3- bit phase shifters for 45, 90 and 180 LC networks needed for each phase shift in the frequency range of about GHz > printed inductors appear as well feasable, > good capacitors with the calculated values were more critical LTCC test run including : simulation, material investigation, design and layout, RF measurements and data extraction, monitoring, debugging, conclusion for the demonstrator > demonstrator manufacturing 5
6 Initial calculation and simulation of the required networks: capacitors in standard dielectric do not achieve enough capacitance, if small OR they do, but require too much area the higher the area the higher the loss vs. GND wide plates / multiple stacking > more inductance Test layouts 2109 and 2118 (var. 1..3) Include locally higher dielectric efficiency to increase achievable values by: Integration of LTCC tapes with higher k Thick film printing of high dielectric pastes Use of very thin standard dielectrics 6

12 structures with high-k-paste advantage: local coverage, different thicknesses possible, lower thickness then tape disadvantage: significant surface topology, impairment of RF structures surface topology caused by capacitor paste 12
13 Warping reduction capacitors between 1st and 2nd and layer n and (n-1) significant reduction down to layer thickness surface topology [µm] = f (# of layers) t=40µm w=2,3mm t=40µm w=0,9mm t=50µm w=2,3mm t=50µm w=0,9mm t=60µm w=2,3mm t=60µm w=0,9mm w w 13
14 Summary: high-k-paste symmetrical use required, causes additional effort, extra thickness, cost, yield loss etc. Better results with really needed high k material additional one to be symmetrically - low thickness of paste - small area = phenomena of shrinkage mismatch, but: no significant compensated with firing profile, lamination process variation or type of tape 14
15 structures with high-k-tape in stacks with layout 2118 /2 high-k-tapes series (Electroscience Laboratories Inc.) may be integrated in their corporate as well as in DuPont- and FERRO laminates DuPont 951AT : Samples C s with ESL realized in different combinations ESL : Samples 25, 26 C s with ESL Samples with with ESL and general setup: metallization Au, via diameters 110µm, lines/spaces down to 100/50µ, 15

Semi symmetrical setup Local perforation of 2nd layer in the area of lines and inductors >deformation due to higher shrinkage on top layers low- angle illumination of warped edge due to local shrinkage differences at the edge (ESL41110) opening in the 2 nd layer solid sandwich 16
17 Summary high-k-tape: stacks with 8 layers, high k = layers 2 and 7 advantages: disadvantages: * low warpage values * stretching of layers 2..8 (top layer down during lamination due to lamination into and sintering ) windows of high-k * height / thickness differences * additional layer needs ESL DuPont 17

20 Summary: passive structures in different material systems - inductors : spiral coils down to 70µm - capacitors : different types with tape and paste cavities for MEMS switches - Rectangular, straight walls, tight gaps round the chip optimized setup and processing for local high-k materials - suitable cofiring condition and process parameters - reduces influences to other components suggestion to build symmetric stacks - is right and logic, but sometimes not useful and / or achievable, causes additional cost and process risks 20
