7."MONOLITHIC MICROWAVE INTEGRATED CIRCUIT FILTERS" by Ahmad Asari Sulaiman
“Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit Filters” Book Review: This book details the findings of a research project focused on designing monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) low pass filters using Si and GaAs semiconductor wafers and circuit and electromagnetic simulations. The study proposes three designs to minimize circuit size and spurious content. The first design, using a single gold layer on the semiconductor substrate, realizes a Butterworth filter made of commensurate stubs and the second m-derived type filter. The second design employs a metal/polyimide/metal multilayer structure consisting of buried coplanar waveguide and polyimide overlay to create a filter that operates without spurious in the passband and stopband. The third design reduces circuit size and features a stopband insertion of 20 dB and return losses of 25 dB. The book also presents a theoretical model and design methodology explaining the structure of the proposed filter.
