Abstract :
Nearly lossless and non-reflecting interconnections between semiconductor-chips and transmission lines working up to 50 GHz can be realized in a "Reverse Beam-Lead Technic" as well as low-impedance ground and power supply interconnections. The paper describes the required technology, compares TDR and S-parameter measurements of state-of-the-art technics and the new one, and gives some examples of high-speed circuits.
