Integrated EMI Filter and Surge Protection Component

摘要

An improved electronic component is described. The electronic component has a capacitor with first planer internal electrodes in electrical contact with a first termination and second planer internal electrodes in electrical contact with a second termination. A dielectric is between the first planer electrodes and the second planer internal electrodes. The electronic component further comprises at least one of:
an inductor comprising a conductive trace wherein said conductive trace is between the first termination and a third termination; andan overvoltage protection component comprising:a third internal electrode contained within the dielectric and wherein the third internal electrode is electrically connected to the first termination;a fourth internal electrode contained within the ceramic and electrically connected to a fourth termination; anda gap between the third internal electrode and the fourth internal electrode.
