Harald Koppel has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Electric component comprising external electrodes and method for the production of an electric component comprising external electrodes
    Patent number: 8194388
    Abstract: An electrical component includes a ceramic base body that includes a surface that is partially ceramic, electrodes in the ceramic base body that have ends that form parts of the surface of the ceramic base body, and a bonding layer on the surface of the ceramic base body. The bonding layer has a composition such that, when the bonding layer is heated, the bonding layer is less adhesive to the ends of the electrodes than when not heated.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 3, 2005
    Date of Patent: June 5, 2012
    Assignee: EPCOS AG
    Inventors: Harald Köppel, Robert Krumphals, Axel Pecina

  • Electrical multi-layer component
    Patent number: 7012501
    Abstract: An electrical component includes a base body that contains dielectric layers. The dielectric layers are superimposed and contain ceramic. The component also includes outer contacts on an exterior of the base body, and a resistor in an interior of the base body located between two of the dielectric layers. The resistor is connected to the outer contacts, and is made from a layer that forms a path between the outer contacts. The path between the outer contacts has multiple bends.
