摘要:
A differential transmission transition interface is disclosed which can include first and a second buried conducting tracks providing respectively first and second differential couplings between a differential RF transmission output and a waveguide; the first buried conducting track extending over an opening of the waveguide to provide a first RF coupling element; and the second buried conducting track extending over the opening to provide a second RF coupling element. At least a portion of the first RF coupling element extends over the waveguide opening in a first angular direction; and at least a portion of the second RF coupling element extends over the waveguide opening in a second angular direction that is opposed to the first angular direction.

The invention relates to circuit boards and to screening circuits and components on such boards from stray rf interference when they are mounted as arrays or stacks of such circuit boards. The circuit boards (12, 14) are individually screened by conductive screening layers (16, 18) as known in the art and the individual screening layers are coupled together by layered interconnects (34) which connect corresponding screening layers (16, 18) of the individual circuit boards (12, 14) together, instead of by vias.

A microwave circuit assembly includes a Liquid Crystalline Polymer (LCP) layer that supports at least one microwave circuit component. First and second ground plane layers form the outer surfaces of the assembly and these are spaced apart at least partially by a gas, a mixture of gases, or a vacuum, from the LCP supporting layer and the at least one microwave circuit.
