Thermal Management Study of LTCC PIN Photodiode Module

Article Preview

Abstract:

Multilayer low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) is well known in usage as interconnect substrate, especially in high frequency application due to high electrical conductivity of the conductors and low loss of the LTCC dielectric. As substrate and packaging materials, there are many chips or devices placed on the multilayer LTCC board. In this paper, multilayer LTCC is implemented as the packaging at PIN photodiode (PD) module of the Radio over Fiber (RoF) system with the reason to increase thermal dissipation capacity of the PD module.
