Abstract
In one aspect, a signal path is described. The signal path has a nominal impedance over a specified bandwidth and interconnects a port of a microwave circuit package and a microwave component mounted in the microwave circuit package. The signal path includes an inductive transition and first and second capacitive structures. The inductive transition extends from a first point on the signal path to a second point on the signal path and has an excess impedance above the nominal impedance. The first and second capacitive structures respectively shunt the first and second points on the signal path to compensate the excess impedance of the inductive transition. The inductive transition and the first and second capacitive structures approximate a filter having an impedance substantially matching the nominal impedance over the specified bandwidth. In other aspects, a microwave circuit package that incorporates the above-described signal path and an interconnection method that includes forming the above-described signal path are described.
