Abstract
The integrated circuit chips (5) are mounted on a ferrite support (20). The ferrite support is metallized uniformly (26) on its lower face and bears metallization zones (21, 24) on its other face. To certain of these zones (24) serving as a ground plane, there are attached the integrated circuit chips (5). The other zones (21) act as relays to connect the supply voltages that are applied by means of a linking wire (7') and a thin film decoupling capacitor (10, 11, 12) borne by the chip. The ground zones (24) are connected to the general ground plane (26) by metallized holes (25). The linking wire (7') is positioned so as to face a bared part of the ferrite to prevent any parasitic resonance.
Claims3
A device for the mounting of chips of very wide-band microwave monolithic integrated circuits comprising capacitors for the decoupling of the DC supplies of said circuits, said device comprising:
- a ferrite support on which said chips are fixed;
- and
- connection means to connect said capacitors to said supplies including metallized connection zones on said support and linking wires connecting said zones to said decoupling capacitors and being positioned so as to face bared parts of said ferrite support.

- and
- connection means to connect said capacitors to said supplies including metallized connection zones on said support and linking wires connecting said zones to said decoupling capacitors and being positioned so as to face bared parts of said ferrite support,
- wherein said ferrite support comprises, on a first face, a uniform metallization to form a general ground plane and, on the opposite face, a plurality of metallization zones, certain of which act as ground planes for the chips that are attached thereto and are connected to said general ground plane by at least a metallized hole going through the ferrite support and the others of which constitute said metallized connections zones.
