Abstract :
Double bondwires buried in a dielectric material is proposed for high frequency hermetic packages and characterized experimentally and theoretically up to 30 GHz. These buried bondwires made it possible to achieve 15 dB improvement of return loss at 20 GHz compared to conventional bondwires.
