Abstract
This paper presents a filter design technique with the embedded passive elements using the low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) process. For the high performance and size reduction, the parasitic elements of the proposed multi-layer structure are positively considered by using the proposed circuit transformation procedures. As a result, the compact low ass filter (LPF) not only has at least 50% more compact thickness than other reported compact structures, but also provides ideal LPF response between 0.5GHz and 5GHz.
