Tamper-respondent assemblies and methods of fabrication are provided which include at least one tamper-respondent sensor and a detector. The at least one tamper-respondent sensor includes conductive lines which form, at least in part, at least one tamper-detect network of the tamper-respondent sensor(s).

The present invention relates to the field of integrating electronic systems that operate at mm-wave and THz frequencies. A monolithic multichip package, a carrier structure for such a package as well as manufacturing methods for manufacturing such a package and such a carrier structure are proposed to obtain a package that fully shields different functions of the mm-wave/THz system. The package is poured into place by polymerizing photo sensitive monomers. It gradually grows around and above the MMICs (Monolithically Microwave Integrated Circuit) making connection to the MMICs but recessing the high frequency areas of the chip. The proposed approach leads to functional blocks that are electromagnetically completely shielded. These units can be combined and cascaded according to system needs.
