    4. 4 April 9, 2003 IMAPS CII, Denver CO Why we use LTCC? Process Low Capital Investment Quick Prototyping Electrical Integrated Passive Components High circuit density (3D Structure) Thermal High ambient temperature resistance Close match to semiconductor TCE Mechanical Machineable (Drill, Cut, Punch) in Green State. High Mechanical Strength after firing Multi-layer Structure Hermetically-sealed Package
