LATERALLY COUPLED ISOLATOR DEVICES

摘要

A laterally coupled isolator includes a pair of isolator traces provided in a common dielectric layer and separated by a distance that defines the isolation strength of the system. Circuit designers can vary the lateral distance to tailor isolation rating to suit individual design needs. A second embodiment includes a semiconductor substrate, provided below the isolator traces that includes a communication circuit electrically coupled to one of the isolator devices
