Abstract

The invention concerns a monolithic filter, in particular a microwave filter, comprising a ceramic body (2) with through holes (3,4). With the exception of one side (6) the surface of the ceramic body (2) is provided with a metallic coating (7). For the injection and extraction of RF signals, terminal faces (8,9) are attached which are separated from the metallic coating (7). Between the terminal faces (8,9) is a ground connection (10) which is also separated from the metallic coating (7).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein monolithisches Filter, insbesonde­ re Mikrowellenfilter, das aus einem Keramikkörper besteht, in dem Durchbohrungen angeordnet sind, die von einer Seite zur gegenüberliegenden Seite führen, bei dem die Oberfläche des Keramikkörpers mit Ausnahme einer Seite eine Metallisierung besitzt, der von der Metallisierung isolierte Anschlußflächen zum kapazitiven Ein-/Auskoppeln von HF-Signalen aufweist, und bei dem zwischen den Anschlußflächen ein Masseanschluß ange­ ordnet ist.The invention relates to a monolithic filter, in particular re microwave filter, which consists of a ceramic body, in the holes are arranged from one side to the opposite side, where the surface of the Ceramic body with the exception of one side a metallization possesses, the connection surfaces insulated from the metallization for capacitive coupling / decoupling of RF signals, and with a ground connection between the pads is arranged.

Ein derartiges Filter ist aus der US 5,162,760 bekannt.Such a filter is known from US 5,162,760.

Der zwischen den Anschlußflächen angeordnete Masseanschluß dient dazu, ein Übersprechen zu reduzieren oder zu vermeiden. Bei dem bekannten Filter ist dieser Masseanschluß mit der Au­ ßenmetallisierung galvanisch verbunden. Es besteht nun die Gefahr, daß bei einer Lötung Lötmetall über das Bauelement verrinnt, was sich bestenfalls nur mit Hilfe von aufwendig aufzubringendem Lötstopplack vermeiden ließe.The ground connection located between the pads is used to reduce or avoid crosstalk. In the known filter, this ground connection is with the Au External metallization galvanically connected. There is now the Risk of solder over the component during soldering trickles away, which can only be done with the help of complex prevent solder mask to be applied.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein Filter der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, bei dem diese Schwierigkei­ ten beim Löten nicht auftreten können.The object of the present invention is to provide a filter Specify the type mentioned, in which this difficulty cannot occur during soldering.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Masseanschluß von der Metallisierung getrennt ist.This object is achieved in that the Ground connection is separated from the metallization.

Durch diese Ausgestaltung wird der Vorteil erzielt, daß die Lotmenge des zwischen den HF-Anschlüssen angeordneten Mas­ seanschlusses nicht verrinnen kann.This configuration has the advantage that the Amount of solder of the Mas arranged between the RF connections can not run out.

Der Gegenstand der Erfindung wird anhand eines Ausführungs­ beispieles näher erläutert.The object of the invention is based on an embodiment example explained in more detail.

In der dazugehörenden Zeichnung mit einer einzigen Figur ist ein Mikrowellenkeramikfilter 1 dargestellt, das aus einem Ke­ ramikkörper 2 besteht, in dem Durchbohrungen 3, 4 angeordnet sind, die von einer Seite 5 zur gegenüberliegenden Seite 6 führen.In the accompanying drawing with a single figure, a microwave ceramic filter 1 is shown, which consists of a Ke ramikkörper 2 , in which through holes 3 , 4 are arranged, which lead from one side 5 to the opposite side 6 .

Alle Außenflächen des Keramikkörpers 2 mit Ausnahme der Flä­ che 6 sind mit einer Metallisierung 7 versehen. Die Innensei­ te der Durchbohrungen 3, 4 ist ebenfalls mit einer Metalli­ sierung versehen, so daß koaxiale Resonatoren gebildet wer­ den.All outer surfaces of the ceramic body 2 with the exception of the surface 6 are provided with a metallization 7 . The inner side of the holes 3 , 4 is also provided with a metallization so that coaxial resonators are formed.

Auf der in der Figur als Oberseite dargestellten Fläche sind über den Durchbohrungen 3, 4 von der übrigen Metallisierung 7 isolierte Anschlußflächen 8, 9 angeordnet, die zur kapaziti­ ven Ein- bzw. Auskoppelung von HF-Signales dienen. Zwischen den Anschlußflächen 8, 9 befindet sich ein Masseanschluß 10, der gemäß der Erfindung ebenfalls von der übrigen Metallisie­ rung 7 getrennt ist.On the surface shown in the figure as the upper side, through the holes 3 , 4 from the rest of the metallization 7 insulated connection surfaces 8 , 9 are arranged, which are used for capacitive coupling and decoupling of RF signals. Between the connection surfaces 8 , 9 there is a ground connection 10 , which is also separated from the rest of the metallization 7 according to the invention.

Die Herstellung der Anschlußflächen 8, 9, 10 geschieht da­ durch, daß diese von der ursprünglich durchgehenden Metalli­ sierung 7 ätztechnisch bzw. mechanisch durch Schleifen von der Umgebungsmetallisierung getrennt werden. Da die Isolie­ rung des Masseanschlusses 10 gleichzeitig mit der Herstellung der HF-Anschlußflächen 8, 9 erfolgt, entsteht kein Mehrauf­ wand.The preparation of the pads 8 , 9 , 10 is done by separating them from the originally continuous metallization 7 etching or mechanically by grinding from the surrounding metallization. Since the isolation of the ground connection 10 takes place simultaneously with the manufacture of the RF pads 8 , 9 , there is no additional wall.
