Abstract
The present invention relates to a transition from a chip to a waveguide port (47, 47′, 11), the chip (1, 1′, 62) having a first main side (3, 3′, 66) and a second main side (4, 4′, 67), where the first main side (3, 3′, 66) comprises at least one input port (35, 36, 37, 38, 39), arranged to receive an input signal, at least one output port (44, 45; 72), arranged to output an output signal, and at least one electrical functionality. One port (44, 72) of said ports (44, 45; 72; 35, 36, 37, 38, 39) is electrically connected to an electrically conducting probe (48, 48′, 73) that is arranged to extend from said one port (44, 72) and at least partly over the waveguide port (47, 47′, 77) such that a signal may be transferred between said one port (44, 72) and the waveguide port (47, 47′, 77). The present invention also relates to a corresponding package.
