Summary<br />
� Analysis <strong>of</strong> partially integrated <strong>LTCC</strong> module is<br />
useful<br />
1) Saving simulation time<br />
2) Rapid redesign<br />
3) Best design cycle performance<br />
� Simulation agree with measured data<br />
� HFSS & Serenade is well suited for <strong>Integrated</strong><br />
<strong>LTCC</strong> Module Analysis
