Patent number: 7756503Abstract: Heretofore, a plurality of packages were used in a high frequency module in which a plurality of waveguide terminals were positioned resulting in problems, such as degradation of characteristics in the connection lines between packages, lower ease of assembly when mounting and connecting the connection lines, increased cost, and so forth. To solve these problems, a plurality of cavities having a part or the entire side metallized is formed in a multi-layer dielectric substrate. The multi-layer dielectric substrate is provided with a plurality of waveguide terminals, microstrip line-waveguide converters, RF lines, bias and control signal wiring, and bias and control signal pads. A high frequency circuit is mounted within the cavity and sealed with a seal and cover. This is intended to reduce the number of package, improve performance, improve fabrication, and lower the cost.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2006Date of Patent: July 13, 2010Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Tsutomu Tamaki, Takuya Suzuki, Koichi Matsuo, Hiroshi Kai

The first signal via is connected to a bias-and-control-signal terminal of a high-frequency semiconductor, and is arranged within a region corresponding to the electromagnetic shielding members. The second signal via is arranged outside the region, and is connected to an external terminal for a bias and control signal. The internal-layer signal line connects between the first and the second signal vias. The internal-layer ground conductor is arranged around the first and the second signal vias and the internal-layer signal line. The ground vias are arranged around the first and the second signal vias and the internal-layer signal line, on the internal-layer ground conductor. A resistance film is provided on at least one of an upper surface and a lower surface of the internal-layer signal line.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2005Date of Patent: February 26, 2008Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Koichi Matsuo, Tsutomu Tamaki, Takuya Suzuki
