A unified dielectric loss model based upon the single-layer ( ) reduction SLR formulation is presented for the determination of dielec-tric loss of a multilayer lossy microstrip line with and without the top shield. The model has accuracy within 0.05 dBr cm or 3% against the field-theoretic results

β¦ Synopsis
This article describes the average power handling capability APHC of multilayer microstrip lines, including the effect of mismatch at the terminations. The data presented herein are validated by considering an example of a 12-W monolithic microwave integrated circuit power amplifier fabricated using multilayer low-loss microstrip technology. The calculated value of APHC for a 50-β line of a 75-m-thick GaAs substrate is 1445 W at 10 GHz, whereas the corresponding value for a multilayer microstrip that has 10-m-thick polyimide is only 44 W. At 40 GHz, these values are reduced by a factor of 2.
