ABSTRACT:
Two-terminal active devices, such as IMPATT and Gunn diodes, are combined with passive devices in a monolithic form using a plated metal heat sink to support the active elements and a coated-on dielectric to support the passive elements. Impedance-matching circuitry is preferably placed very close to (or partially overlapping) the active device, thereby eliminating detrimental device-to-circuit transition losses.
