Eric

Don't think it was that one.

It was a 5 sided LCP box with BGA balls/stud embedded in the mold. The die
was mounted sunny side up and wirebonded to the internal studs. Again cant'
recall the publication - probably because it did not have buzz words like
GHz, dielectric or microwave!

Greig,

I was thinking about the PolymerStudGridArray which is manufactured by
Siemens and the various MID devices out there where tracking is deposited
onto the thermoplastic. I'm not sure we're talking about the same things
here..?
