In some embodiments, the step S31 includes the steps of:
Firstly, soaking a substrate in deionized water, and then sequentially putting the substrate into acetone solution, alcohol solution and deionized water for ultrasonic cleaning respectively to remove organic matters.
In this embodiment, a seed layer is deposited on the surface of the substrate for the fabrication process by parameter optimization, and the method mainly comprises determining the optimal use environment of the plating solution by single factor analysis, and optimizing the parameters of the plating solution by orthogonal test. Firstly, soaking in deionized water for 10min to prevent excessive cleaning medicines from entering pores of a substrate, and then sequentially placing a sample into an acetone solution, an alcohol solution and deionized water for ultrasonic cleaning for 10min respectively to remove organic matters such as oil stains on the surface.

In this embodiment, the wettability of the substrate is poor, the difference between the crystal structure and the metal material is large, and the chemical force between the crystal structure and the metal coating is very weak, so that the combination mode is physical combination, and the combination is mainly based on mechanical engagement, namely "latch effect". The roughening purpose is to etch the substrate surface properly, and promote the binding force. The preset concentration is 50mL/L, the surface of the substrate sample is etched for one hour at normal temperature by adopting a hydrofluorocarbon solution with the concentration of 50mL/L, and the substrate sample is taken out and washed by deionized water, so that a good result can be obtained.

Preparing a sensitization solution, wherein the sensitization solution comprises stannous chloride, hydrochloric acid and elemental tin, putting a substrate into the sensitization solution for sensitization treatment, and then taking out the substrate and flushing the substrate by using deionized water.
In this example, the sensitization treatment aims to adsorb a layer of ions having reducibility on the surface of the substrate for reducing noble metal ions having catalytic action. Since the Sn < 2+ > ions are unstable in the air and are easily oxidized into Sn < 4+ > by oxygen in the air, the capability of reducing noble metal ions is lost, and therefore, when preparing a sensitization solution, a small amount of elemental tin is put into the solution to prevent the oxidation of the elemental tin. Stannous chloride has low solubility in water, but is very soluble in dilute or concentrated hydrochloric acid solution, and stannous chloride has stronger reducing power in an acidic environment, so that the sensitization processing parameters are determined as shown in the following table.

The conventional high-power microwave power amplifier often needs to be implemented in a pre-matching manner (input matching circuit+microwave power transistor+output matching circuit, where the microwave power transistor and part of the matching circuit are located in the package, and most of the matching circuit is located on the PCB board outside the package), which results in a larger volume and poor product consistency. The high-power microwave power amplifier is based on a microwave hybrid integrated circuit process, utilizes a thick copper-plated ceramic substrate, adopts an internal matching mode, integrates most of input matching circuits and output matching circuits on the thick copper-plated ceramic substrate respectively (input matching circuits, microwave power transistors and output matching circuits, wherein the microwave power transistors, part of the matching circuits and the ceramic substrate provided with most of the matching circuits are positioned in a tube shell), and thus well utilizes the advantages of high process precision of the hybrid integrated circuit and the advantages of small loss of the thick copper-plated ceramic substrate, and solves the problem of large volume of the high-power microwave power amplifier.

The three volume parameters in the figure are ①,2、3、4,③ volumes, respectively. The miniaturization method mainly adopts a substrate with high dielectric constant, adopts a high-precision line processing technology, and reduces the whole circuit volume. The conventional high-power microwave power amplifier is shown in fig. 5-6, and fig. 6: ① The input matching circuit is a PCB board, 1 is an input matching circuit on the PCB board ①; ② The power supply circuit is characterized in that the power supply circuit is a tube shell, 2 is an input matching circuit on the tube shell ②, 3 is a microwave power transistor on the tube shell ②, and 4 is an output matching circuit on the tube shell ②; ③ The circuit is a PCB board, and 5 is an output matching circuit on the PCB board ③.
