Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing low cost integrated microwave assemblies, where a photoresist layer is deposited onto a substrate, a portion of the photoresist is selectively removed, a first conductive layer is applied, and, a second portion of the photoresist is removed leaving isolation walls and cavities. Electrical components are placed in the cavities and a first dielectric layer fills the cavities. Vias are created in the first dielectric material exposing the electrical contacts, a second conductive layer is applied into the vias and over the first dielectric material. The second conductive layer is patterned by removing a portion of the second conductive layer creating a signal line pattern in the second conductive layer.
