摘要:
Methods of manufacture of integrated circuit inductors having slotted magnetic material will be described. The methods may employ electro- or electroless plating techniques to form a layer or layers of magnetic material within the slotted magnetic material structure, and in particular those magnetic material layers adjacent to insulator layers.
摘要:
Some embodiments include a die having a transformer. The transformer includes windings formed from a set of lines, such that no two lines belonging to any one winding are nearest neighbors. The lines are formed within one layer on the die. Other embodiments are described.
摘要:
An integrated circuit (IC) package is disclosed. The IC package includes a first die; and a second die bonded to the CPU die in a three dimensional packaging layout.
摘要:
An embodiment is a magnetic via. More specifically, an embodiment is a magnetic via that increases the inductance of, for example, an integrated inductor or transformer while mitigating eddy currents therein that may limit the operation of the inductor or transformer at high frequency.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for multi-phase transformers are described. In one embodiment, a coupled inductor topology for the multi-phase transformers comprising N primary inductors. In one embodiment, each primary inductor is coupled to one of N input nodes and a common output node. The transformer further includes N−1 secondary inductors coupled in series between one input node and the common output node. In one embodiment, the N−1 secondary inductors are arranged to couple energy from N−1 of the primary inductors to provide a common node voltage as an average of N input node voltages, wherein N is an integer greater than two. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
