Abstract: The objective of the proposed research is to design and demonstrate ultra-thin, high-performance glass panel embedded package (GPE) for RADAR applications. Ultra-thin low-warpage GPE packages were demonstrated with thickness less than 150 µm applying advanced low-cost large panel based double side carrier process. Low-loss interconnects were modeled and designed with interconnection loss below 0.12 dB at 77 GHz enabled by ultra-low loss dielectric, and high precision processing with minimal variations in line and via geometries on glass substrates. A die-package codesign is proposed for high-frequency characterization of ultra-thin GPE package for RADAR applications.
