초록

최근 고성능/고집적 RF 소자 및 시스템들의 경박 단소화 추세에 따라 RF 무선 통신 분야에도 초소형미세 가공 기술인 MEMS 기술이 크게 주목받고 있다. 이에 본 고에서는 RF 부품 및 시스템을 MEMS 기술로서 실장하는 RF MEMS 패키지 기술에 대하여 간단히 살펴보았다. 우선, 실리콘 기반의 MEMS 패키지가 우수한 열 전달 특성과 저 손실의 고주파특성으로 인해 RF 시스템의 실장에 매우 적합함을 확인하였다. 또한, MEMS 기술을 이용함으로써 RF회로와 패키지 제작 공정이 동시에 이루어질 수 있도록 하는 일괄터리공정에 대하여 소개하였다.
