[0005] The main body of the waveguide connection package is composed of a main body lower part 1 on which a semiconductor element 6 is mounted and an upper lid 2.
In the lower part 1 of the main body, a cavity 8 is formed, and waveguide-microstrip conversions (microstrips) 5a and 5b for converting a waveguide mode (TE 01 ) into a quasi-TEM mode of a microstrip line, and a semiconductor element 6 Is implemented. The waveguide-to-microstrip converters 5a and 5b and the semiconductor element 6 are connected by bonding wires 7a and 7b. In addition, short surfaces 4a and 4b are formed on the upper lid 2 so that conversion by the waveguide-microstrip converters 5a and 5b is performed efficiently. In the waveguide-microstrip converters 5a and 5b, the waveguide mode is not completely converted to the microstrip mode.
The electromagnetic wave leaking from b propagates in the cavity 8 in which the semiconductor element 6 is mounted. As a result, there is a problem that isolation characteristics between input and output of the semiconductor element 6 are deteriorated and performance is deteriorated. In the conventional structure, the semiconductor element 6
Is reduced by reducing the width of the cavity 8 (in the direction perpendicular to the signal propagation direction and parallel to the mounting surface) in which
The propagation in the cavity 8 is blocked, or a radio wave absorber is provided inside the cavity 8.

However, in order to block propagation in the cavity, it is necessary to reduce the width of the cavity. Moreover, the higher the frequency, the smaller the width is required. For example, at 76 GHz, the width of the cavity becomes 2 mm or less. In other words, it is necessary to reduce the space for mounting the semiconductor element, and it is difficult to mount the semiconductor element, and the yield is reduced. Also, the size of the semiconductor element that can be physically mounted is limited, and a large-sized integrated circuit is mounted. There was a problem that it became difficult to do. Also, when using a radio wave absorber,
It may be difficult to absorb electromagnetic waves sufficiently,
There is a problem that it is difficult to absorb leakage electromagnetic waves in a wide band.
