  • Stripline shielding techniques in low temperature co-fired ceramic
    Patent number: 5150088
    Abstract: Stripline shielding structures for stripline conductors implemented in unitized multilayer circuit structures are disclosed. The stripline structures generally include a lower ground plane below the stripline conductor, one or more embedded ground planes above the stripline conductor, and conductive elements laterally spaced from the stripline conductor for electrically connecting the ground planes. Resistive layers may be included above the embedded ground plane(s) for additional shielding.
