<p>1,233,570. Making electrical components. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS Inc. 19 Sept., 1968 [27 Oct., 1967], No. 44610/68. Heading B3A. [Also in Division H1] A number of modules for making transformers, inductors, or capacitors are cut from a single bar which has been coated with copper and silver on at least two opposed faces and grooved longitudinally so as to cut through the metal layer. To make capacitors 12 (see Fig. 5), a bar of barium titanate is coated on two opposed surfaces and grooved at 11 to form two capacitors effectively in series and having one common plate 10a which may be partially removed by an abrasive air jet to adjust the capacitance values. These may deliberately be made unequal by offsetting groove 11. Plates 10b, 10c may be soldered directly to a circuit board or to legs of a transformer or inductor core, made as described below, to form a modular tuned circuit. H-shaped cores 7 (see Fig. 3b) for transformers or inductors are made from a high resistivity ferrite bar, coated all round with silver on copper, by forming grooves 3 in two opposite surfaces to leave terminal pads on the core legs 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b. One or both pads may be divided by a further groove 8 to form a pair of terminals. Two bifilar windings 31, 32 wound on the centre of such a core form the primary and secondary of a transformer 30 (see Fig. 11a) which is soldered to terminals A, B on an alumina substrate 15. The winding 31 is connected to terminals A, B through the core terminals and both winding 32 and capacitor plates 10b, 10c are connected by metal strips 33, 35 to terminals C, E respectively. A further strip 34 connects capacitor plate 10a to a terminal D to serve as an impedance tap. Series and parallel modular resonant circuits are described, mounted on a single support 15 to form a video I.F. amplifier circuit.</p> |
