ABSTRACT:
A microwave transmit/receive module comprises a single multi-layer substrate having at least two opposed mounting surfaces. The substrate including a plurality of integrated dielectric layers, electrical conductors and thermal conductors selectively interconnected between the layers of the substrate. A microwave signal processing means is mounted on at least one of the mounting surfaces of the substrate for processing microwave radar signals. A control signal processing means is mounted on at least one of the mounting surfaces of the substrate for providing control signals for the microwave signal processing means via selected electrical conductors. A power conditioning means is mounted on at least one of the mounting surfaces of the substrate for providing power to the microwave signal processing means and the control signal processing means via selected electrical conductors. A heat sink interface means coupled to the thermal conductors is mounted on at least one of the mounting surfaces of the substrate in thermal proximity selected portions of the microwave signal processing means, the power conditioning means and the control signal processing means for conducting thermal energy away therefrom via selected thermal conductors. An optical interface interface as well as an integrated coaxial cable carrying power, control and microwave signals for the module.
