  • Publication number: 20180286556
    Abstract: An inductor of an integrated circuit can include one or more magnetically transparent and non-conductive layers, a plurality of conductive elements, and a plurality of through hole conductor elements. The plurality of conductive elements can be disposed about opposite sides of each of the one or more non-conductive layers. The plurality of through hole conductive elements can be disposed through the one or more non-conductive layers and electrically coupling selected ones of the plurality of conductive elements in one or more conductive paths configured such that a magnetic field generated in response to a current flow in the one or more conductive paths opposes changes in the current flow.

  • Patent number: 9480162
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards a circuit board having integrated passive devices such as inductors, capacitors, resistors and associated techniques and configurations. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a circuit board having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface and a passive device integral to the circuit board, the passive device having an input terminal configured to couple with electrical power of a die, an output terminal electrically coupled with the input terminal, and electrical routing features disposed between the first surface and the second surface of the circuit board and coupled with the input terminal and the output terminal to route the electrical power between the input terminal and the output terminal, wherein the input terminal includes a surface configured to receive a solder ball connection of a package assembly including the die. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
