Summary: | This project dealt with the design and fabrication of bandpass filter centered at 16
GHz using modem thick-film technology. The rapid development of the commercial
microwave circuits requires a low cost, cheaper technology to replace the old, more
expensive thin-film technology. Therefore, thick-film technology is the best
alternative. The effects of fabrication tolerances in the physical dimensions of various
parameters were being investigated as well. The analysis of the result can then be
applied to determine the trade off between perfOlmance and tolerances. It is therefore
extremely important to control the vmiations of parameters in microstlip with
fablication tolerances to achieve the desired perfonnance. |
