Patent number: 6391526Abstract: A thick film low value high frequency inductor made by the process of subjecting a conductor layer to a plurality of linear cuts by a pulsing laser cutter imposed simultaneously on the entire length of the linear cut being made to create a cross sectional cut of substantial rectangular configuration. The conductor body is a layer of dried silver thick film ink. The method of making a thick film low value high frequency inductor involves the steps of taking a conductor layer comprised of a dried layer of photo sensitive silver ink, masking the ink with the negative of the desired configuration of the ink, exposing the ink to UV radiation, developing the ink, and firing the layer to adhere the silver to the layer.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2000Date of Patent: May 21, 2002Assignee: Vishay Dale Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Herman R.

Patent number: 5688711Abstract: A monolithic multilayer ultra thin chip inductor is manufactured with two terminals on the same end of the component to reduce the mechanical stresses caused by a coefficient of expansion mismatch. A third no-connect terminal located on the opposite end may be used to mount the component when a more rigid connection is required. The inductor is constructed using a bottom and top coil layer, each having a coil and forming a termination point corresponding to the inductor terminals. The opposite ends of the coils form connection ends and are electrically connected to form a continuous coil from one terminal to the other. Optionally, a number of intermediate coil layers can be included between the bottom and top coil layers. The coil layers are selected from a set of coil layers. As a result, the total number of coil turns can be obtained by selecting the appropriate coil layers.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 1996Date of Patent: November 18, 1997Assignee: Dale Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Herman R.

Patent number: 5287083Abstract: A bulk metal chip resistor includes an elongated resistor element having terminals at its opposite ends. The terminals are formed by coating the opposite ends of the resistor element with a conductive material. Insulative material may be molded around the center portion of the resistor to provide structural support, and the ends of the resistor can be bent downwardly so as to cause the central portion to be raised when the resistor is mounted on a circuit board. A modified form of the invention includes wrapping the resistance element around the ends of a rectangular substrate so that the substrate provides structural support. Another modified form includes placing four terminals at the four corners of the resistor element.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 1992Date of Patent: February 15, 1994Assignee: Dale Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Herman R.

Patent number: 5235311Abstract: A magnetic variable resistor has an elongated band of electrically resistive magnetic material, with the side edges tapered to a sharp point so that the skin effect causes current to migrate to the edges to create greater resistance. A layer of insulating material can cover the band as it is coiled. Leads are secured to opposite ends of the band. An alternate form of the invention embeds the coiled band in a magnetic insulating material. Surface mount leads are flush with at least one surface of the insulating material.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 1992Date of Patent: August 10, 1993Assignee: Dale Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Herman R.
