Abstract
Under an Advanced Research Projects Agency program (NRaD contract N660 01-89-C-0104), a fully functional Global Positioning System (GPS) rece iver using Laminated Multichip Modules (MCM-L's) was developed. Althou gh many facets of GPS are of interest, this paper will use this partic ular module design as an example of a more generic mixed-signal (i,e,, containing both analog and digital electronic elements) system, conce ntrating on the design, assembly, and test aspects related to typical mixed-signal MCM problems. Topics include system requirements, design constraints, substrate selection and description, design approach, ass embly and test.
