Abstract :
A leaded plastic package has been developed that significantly improves the insertion and return loss, and pin-to-pin isolation of SO-type packages based on measured data and three-dimensional electromagnetic simulations. In addition, an equivalent circuit has been developed that accurately models the circuit behavior of the improved package to above 8 GHz.
