Integrated circuit comprising at least an integrated antenna

摘要

An integrated circuit on a substrate including at least one peripheral portion that surrounds an active area and is realized close to at least one scribe line providing separation with other integrated circuits realized on a same wafer. The integrated circuit includes at least one conductive structure that extends in its peripheral portion on different planes starting from the substrate and realizes an integrated antenna for the circuit.

主权项

1. An integrated circuit comprising:
a substrate including a peripheral portion that surrounds an active area supporting a transceiver circuit, wherein said peripheral portion is realized close to at least one scribe line, and a conductive structure that extends above said peripheral portion on different planes starting from said substrate and comprising a plurality of first conductive lines realized in said different planes, each first conductive line forming a coil, with the coils made from the first conductive lines connected to form an integrated antenna having a first end and second end coupled to said transceiver circuit; and another conductive structure that extends above said peripheral portion on different planes comprising a plurality of second conductive lines realized in said different planes to form a seal ring; wherein the integrated antenna is positioned between the seal ring and the active area on the substrate.
