Abstract:
A dielectric structure extends over the substrate and a transformer is integrated in the dielectric structure. The transformed includes a first winding in the dielectric layer at a first height and a second winding in the dielectric layer at a second height greater than the first height. The first and second windings are magnetically coupleable to one another. A magnetic element is positioned in alignment with the first and second windings. In one implementation, the magnetic element underlies the first winding in a position between the substrate and the first winding. In another implementation, the magnetic element overlies the second winding.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a semiconductor body and a dielectric layer extending over the semiconductor body. A galvanic isolation module includes a first metal region extending in the dielectric layer at a first height and a second metal region extending in the dielectric layer at a second height greater than the first height. The first and second metal regions are capacitively or magnetically coupleable together. The second metal region includes a side wall and a bottom wall coupled to one another through rounded surface portions.
Abstract:
An integrated transformer includes a primary winding and a secondary winding each having a spiral planar arrangement coils. A dielectric portion of dielectric material is interposed between the primary winding and the secondary winding. A field plate winding is electrically coupled with the primary winding. The field plate winding includes at least one field plate coil having a first lateral extension greater than a second lateral extension of a primary outer coil of the primary winding. The field plate coil is superimposed in plan view to the primary outer coil of the primary winding.
