Novel SoP for Automotive radar applications Sun, Jan 1 2017 - Wed, Aug 1 2018 Sop A novel SoP design for automotive radar applications that employs, for the first time, a mixed LTCC tape system and integrates a fractal antenna array with a Fresnel lens to enhance the gain manifolds. 2016 Systems on chip (SoC) with integrated Antennas Tue, Mar 1 2016 - Mon, Jan 1 2018 Systems on chip A miniature RF SoC is an ideal solution for many short-range wireless applications. Traditionally, sensors and antennas have been implemented off-the-chip requiring different integration and packaging methods to connect to circuits on-chip. 2015 Wireless Interconnect Between On-Chip and LTCC Antennas Mon, Jun 1 2015 - Tue, Mar 1 2016 on-chip antennas LTCC antenna In this work, a novel System-in-Package (SiP) implementation is presented for a transmitter (TX) module which makes use of electromagnetic coupling between the TX chip and package antennas at 5.2 GHz. 2014 Wireless Dosimeter Mon, Sep 1 2014 - Thu, Oct 1 2015 wireless sensor networks Biosensors System-on-a-chip In this work, a new floating-gate (FG) MOSFET based wireless dosimeter system-in-package (SiP) is presented.

Typically these packages are mere holders of the IC. These ICs are then mounted on system boards that contain lots of components, like passives, interconnections, power sources, etc. The system on package (SoP), is a new approach that brings in functionality into the package by realizing passive components inside the package. 2012 Ferrite LTCC Based Reconfigurable and Tunable Circuits and Antennas Tue, May 1 2012 - Wed, Oct 1 2014 Sop applications Low-Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) is a mature medium for SoP applications. Efficient passive elements can be designed in LTCC because of its low losses. The introduction of a high-dielectric constant ferrite material in the package not only helps to miniaturize the components but also permits the control of the devices made from it.
