Parasitics analysis of a grounded bondwire for low-cost plastic packaging of microwave devices

초고주파소자의 저가 플라스틱 실장을 위한 접지된 본딩와이어의 기생특성 해석

The dielectric effects on the parasitics of bondwires buried in slightly-lossy dielectric materials hav been investigated over a wide frequency range using the method of moments with incorporation of ohmic and dielectric losses. The FR-4 composite is widely used as a basis material for PCB and plastic packages, because of it sinherent electricl and chemical stbility and low cost. The cole-cole model, which is representative complex permittivity model of epoxy polymers, has been applied to consider the dielectric effects in the MoM calculation. The prasitic impedance of a grounded bondwire in FR-4 composite is greatly increased due to the dielectric loading effect enhanced by the radiation at high frequencies. These calculation results will be helpful for designing and packaging of high-frequency low-cost IC's.
