Abstract

An improved equivalent circuit model is proposed to accurately characterize a metal via transition, between a finite ground coplanar waveguide (FGCPW) and a finite ground thin film microstrip line (FGTFML), which was fabricated using standard CMOS technology. This circuit model with only a few lumped‐circuit elements is established and optimized to achieve a wide frequency range of operation, i.e., 1.0–30.0 GHz. A via transition circuit is fabricated and the measured results have evidently validated the predicted results derived from our proposed circuit model. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
