  • Integration of a receiver front-end in multilayer ceramic integrated circuit technology
    Patent number: 6289204
    Abstract: A multilayer ceramic integrated circuit module for a receiver front-end of a wireless communication device is provided. The module contains an embedded component portion, which has a plurality of thick film capacitors; a plurality of multilayer capacitors; and a plurality of transmission lines deposited internal to the multilayer ceramic integrated circuit module to interconnect the plurality of thick film capacitors and the plurality of multilayer capacitors. The module also contains a mounted component portion, which has a pair of pin diodes; a transistor and a plurality of resistors coupled thereto, for controlling the bias of the pair of pin diodes; and a low-noise-amplifier. The module reduces the size and weight of wireless devices and combines multiple functions into a highly integrated device.
