PLANAR INDUCTOR DEVICES

摘要

A planar inductor device includes a substrate, a ferrite body in the substrate, upper and lower conductors, and conductive vias. The substrate vertically extends from an upper surface to an opposite lower surface. The substrate laterally extends from a first edge to a second edge. The upper conductors are disposed above the ferrite body. The lower conductors are disposed below the ferrite body. The conductive vias extend through the substrate and are conductively coupled with the upper conductors and with the lower conductors. The vias, the upper conductors, and the lower conductors form one or more conductive coils that encircle the ferrite body in the substrate. At least one of the first edge or the second edge of the substrate passes through one or more of the vias such that the vias are exposed at the at least one of the first edge or the second edge.
