  • Abstract
    This paper presents characterization and analysis of liquid crystal polymer materials for microwave and millimeter multi-layer packaging. Processing techniques have been developed to fabricate interconnects on this new LCP material. The experimental results demonstrate that an interconnect on LCP achieves a measured insertion loss of less than 0.1 dB/mm up to 50 GHz. This material is highly suitable for microwave and millimeter wave packaging.
