Abstract From the Canadian patent

A semiconductor microwave amplifier includes input- and output-side microstrip lines formed on a printed-circuit board to oppose each other, input and output electrodes formed on the microstrip lines to be parallel to the microstrip lines, a pair of ground electrodes formed in a direction perpendicular to the input and output electrodes to oppose each other, and a semiconductor amplification device connected to all of the electrodes. This amplifier further has a metal plate connected to the ground electrodes to ensure high-frequency isolation between the input electrode and the output electrode and shield electromagnetic connection, and a through hole for connecting a ground portion of the …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed April 28, 1998 and granted April 24, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 28, 2018.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 28, 2020.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
