Abstract

Multilayer microstrip lines are an integral part of an MMIC. This paper presents an analysis of multilayer GaAs-MMIC microstrip line using a spectral domain method(SDM) taking into account the effect of the variation in the thickness of various layers of substrates on the characteristic impedance and the effective dielectric constant of the line. This work is expected to be useful in GaAs foundries for accurate CAD modelling of the microstrip lines up to 40GHz.
