Abstract:
A high self resonant frequency inductor and method for making the same is described. The inductor comprises a plurality of horizontal conductor coils vertically spaced apart, including a top conductor coil and a bottom conductor coil, the top and bottom conductor coils each having a conductive termination. Dielectric material extends between and separates the conductive coils and the top and bottom terminations. The dielectric material has a plurality of via holes therein to provide communication between adjacent pairs of the conductive coils, the top conductive coil and top termination, and the bottom conductive coil and bottom termination. A plurality of conductive via connections extend through the via holes to connect the plurality of conductor coils, the top termination, and the bottom termination in series with one another.
