摘要
An miniaturized Evanescent Mode Cavity (EMC) filter was designed in Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics (LTCC) technology as a Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) component. The filter response and the Q-factor were measured and their temperature dependency was analyzed. The EMC-filter has a center-frequency of 15 GHz, a bandwidth of 554 MHz and a minimal insertion loss of -1.84 dB. The unloaded Q factor is 248. Additionally a similar filter design with standard cavities was re-fabricated on the same LTCC run. Both filters were compared in terms of component size, Q-factor, temperature dependency of different parameters and the sensitivity to manufacturing tolerances.
