Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to microelectronics, and more particularly to a cofired multi-layer ceramic structure incorporating a microwave component, in particular a circulator composed of a ferrite film.
- the invention concerns an integrated circuit comprising a cofired assembly of a plurality of layers of a dielectric carrier of circuit elements, a film including a material having ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties incorporated in at least one of said dielectric carrier layer(s), which film is interiorly positioned within the cofired assembly.
- Low temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) process technologies are routinely performed to incorporate passive components in a multi-layer substrate that is sintered to form a cohesive structure.
- Ceramic tape is formed by mixing ceramic powders with organic binders and processing the mixture into a thin tape that is commonly referred to as "green tape” in its unfired state. Multiple sheets of this ceramic green tape are printed with passive components consisting of metallized circuit patterns, and these sheets are arranged in layers that are electrically vertically interconnected by conductive vias. The layers are subsequently assembled, laminated, and cofired at a relatively low temperature (less than 1000°C). Cofiring "sinters" the substrate layers thereby creating a monolithic integrated circuit.
- the low temperature sintering used in LTCC processes enables the incorporation of components made from highly conductive materials such as silver (Ag), gold (Au), copper (Cu), silver-palladium (Ag-Pd), and platinum-gold (Pt-Au), rather than the less conductive materials such as tungsten (W) and molybdenum (Mo) that must be used in high temperature cofired ceramic (HTCC) applications.
- highly conductive materials such as silver (Ag), gold (Au), copper (Cu), silver-palladium (Ag-Pd), and platinum-gold (Pt-Au)
- W tungsten
- Mo molybdenum
- a ceramic packaging is used for instance such as a Microwave Integrated Circuit (MIC).
- MIC Microwave Integrated Circuit
- electrical performance must often be weighed against physical constraints imposed by MIC manufacturing and component insertion methodologies.
- a circulator is a multi-port component that permits radio frequency (RF) to flow in one direction between adjacent ports.
- RF radio frequency
- This is one application for ferrite components.
- Other applications include phase shifters, limiters, duplexers, switches, modulators, T/R modules, attenuators and dampers.
- An example of a typical junction circulator 10 is shown in Figure 1, and consists of three ports 12 that form a symmetrical Y intersecting at a junction disk 14 that is coupled to a magnet 16.
- Microwave energy 18 can flow in one direction only, for example from port A to B, B to C, and from C to A.
- the component is referred to as an isolator.
- the magnet included in a typical circulator increases the thickness of the device substantially. Therefore, to append a circulator or isolator to a ceramic package, the typical circulator is "dropped in” and secured mechanically (by a flange or through-hole mounting process) after the sintering step. Electrical connections are established by soldering connecting means such as leads from the drop-in component to leads attached to previously printed metallized components such as conductors, resistors, and capacitors.
- soldering connecting means such as leads from the drop-in component to leads attached to previously printed metallized components such as conductors, resistors, and capacitors.
- drop-in components are expensive and procurement is somewhat time-consuming because the components are difficult to specify and suppliers typically require relatively long lead times.
- the drop-in process requires an extra trimming step that produces waste and slows processing time. Performance and yield are also suboptimal because soldering electrical connections increases the risk of circuit failure, and increased spacing is required between components.
- CPW launches are also widely used to integrate planar components in MIC designs. CPW approaches disadvantageously require a high degree of mechanical complexity or an electrically large substrate size, making integration in broadband MIC applications difficult. As may be appreciated from this description of current techniques for including such components in an integrated circuit package, there is a need for an improved, more efficient, and less expensive system and a better method of incorporating circulators and similar devices in monolithic circuit structures.
- US 5,065,275 discloses less relevant techniques, such as US 5,065,275, describing electrically isolated dielectrics to be used as integrated capacitors in densely packed PCBs.
- US 5,277,725 provides for production of ceramic housing incorporating material with low epsilon. Similar thoughts are also found in, e.g. EP 507 719 Al and WO 93/01928.
- a ferromagnetic material in ink or tape form is sinterable using a same firing profile as and has approximately the same thermal shrinkage characteristics as low-temperature-cofired-ceramic (LTCC) tape, and is chemically non-reactive therewith.
- LTCC low-temperature-cofired-ceramic
- the ferromagnetic material is applied to the surfaces of LTCC tape sheets to form desired elements such as cores for inductors and transformers and magnetic shields.
- Ferromagnetic vertical interconnects vias
- the tape sheets and ferromagnetic elements are laminated together and cofired to form an integral structure.
- Ferromagnetic and non-magnetic components can be fabricated separately and inserted into cavities in tape sheets prior to cofiring.
- a multi-layer transformer includes primary and secondary coils, each being formed of vertically aligned, arcuate conductors which are printed on separate tape sheets and vertically interconnected at their ends to form continuous electrical paths therethrough.
- this invention relates to method of producing a transformer.
- a LTCC layer is provided with a conductive structure and enclosed between a ferromagnetik layers. Consequently, this invention differs from the present invention in structure and object.
- a high-frequency use non-reciprocal circuit is disclosed in the
- the circuit includes a sintered body, which is a high-frequency use magnetic body obtained by a ceramic lamination/integral firing technique, a plurality of central electrodes, which are arranged in the sintered body to be separated from each other through a magnetic layer while intersecting with each other at central portions. Electrodes are arranged for deriving impedance- matching capacitance formed in the vicinity of the intersecting portion to be in series with the central electrodes.
- the magnetic layer provided between the central electrodes serves as an insulating layer for electrically insulating the central electrodes from each other, a high-frequency use magnetic layer, and a material layer for deriving the impedance-matching capacitance.
- the present invention fulfills the needs described above by providing a system and method of incorporating microwave components into a cofired or ferrit circuit structure during the sintering step thereby avoiding previously required separate steps to mechanically secure the component to the circuit structure. This also provides better performance, greater component yield, and a more compact and reliable construction.
- the film including a material having ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties further comprises a metallized circuit pattern, being protectively encapsulated within the cofired assembly.
- the present invention concerns integrating a circulator component consisting of a ferroelectric/ferromagnetic film upon which a circuit pattern is printed and that is incorporated as a layer, or portion of a layer, that is sintered in a process, such as an LTCC process, along with all other ceramic layers of an integrated circuit.
- An exemplary embodiment of the present invention takes the form of a microwave integrated circuit (MIC) that includes a cofired assembly of multiple layers of a dielectric tape that serves as a carrier for circuit elements and that incorporates and interiorly positions a film including a material that has ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties in at least one of the dielectric tape layers.
- MIC microwave integrated circuit
- each layer Prior to cofiring, each layer is electrically connected to the other layer(s) by means of holes made through the layers, commonly referred to as "vias", which are subsequently filled with a conductive material.
- the ferrite film at least partly, includes at least one circuit element that is configured to perform a faraday rotation of a microwave signal.
- the circuit element includes a metallized circuit pattern that is screen printed on the film.
- the circuit pattern in combination with the properties of the ferrite material, can define several different types of components that rely upon a faraday rotation to manipulate a microwave signal such as isolators, phase shifters, limiters, or dampers. Furthermore, several circulators can be joined together to increase the number of available ports.
- the dielectric layers form a multi-layer substrate, each layer of which may contain screen printed circuit components, in which at least one layer includes the ferrite film and thus at least one circuit element configured to perform a faraday rotation of a microwave signal.
- the ferrite film can make up a portion of a non-ferrite layer, or an entire layer of the substrate can be formed of the ferrite film. After assembly of the multi-layer substrate, the layers are cofired together in a process that sinters the layers to form a monolithic structure, thereby protectively encapsulating the ferrite film and metallized circuit pattern within the cofired assembly.
- the multi-layer substrate each layer composed of a dielectric material upon which circuit components are printed, the layers being configured to be assembled and cofired together, includes multiple adjacent ferrite layers that together form a circuit element that is configured to perform a faraday rotation of a microwave signal.
- the present invention also includes a method of manufacturing an integrated circuit that consists of an assembly of a multiple layers of a dielectric carrier, in which each layer can be impregnated with circuit elements and electrically connected to the other layers by vias. At least one of the layers includes a film having ferroelectric and/or ferromagnetic properties.
- a circuit metallization pattern is screen printed on the ferrite film to form a circuit element and associated conductors that perform a faraday rotation of a microwave signal.
- the layers are then assembled and sintered together according to an LTCC process, thereby forming an integrated circuit.
- the ferrite film and circuit metallization pattern are protectively encapsulated within the cofired assembly. Any excess material is trimmed from the integrated circuit.
- the system and method of the present invention can be implemented in a process, preferably a cofiring process and most preferably in LTCC, HTCC or similar processes.
- material used for non-ferrite layers may comprise any material suitable for carrying out the aforementioned process, such as ceramics or compositions thereof.
- the ferrite film preferably includes a grain-oriented ferrite, with crystal axes aligned predominately in the same direction so as to create a permanent ceramic magnet.
