摘要:
An upper planar capacitor is spaced above a lower planar capacitor by a dielectric layer. A bridged-post inter-layer connector couples the capacitances in parallel, through first posts and second posts. The first posts and second posts extend through the dielectric layer, adjacent the upper and lower planar capacitors. A first level coupler extends under the dielectric layer and couples the first posts together and to a conductor of the lower planar capacitor, and couples another conductor of the lower planar capacitor to one of the second posts. A second level coupler extends above the dielectric layer, and couples the second posts together and to a conductor of the upper planar capacitor, and couples another conductor of the upper planar capacitor to one of the first posts.

An inductor structure includes a first set of traces corresponding to a first layer of an inductor, a second set of traces corresponding to a second layer of the inductor, and a third set of traces corresponding to a third layer of the inductor that is positioned between the first layer and the second layer. The first set of traces includes a first trace and a second trace that is parallel to the first trace. A dimension of the first trace is different from a corresponding dimension of the second trace. The second set of traces is coupled to the first set of traces. The second set of traces includes a third trace that is coupled to the first trace and to the second trace. The third set of traces is coupled to the first set of traces.

The system includes a second connector coupled to a second surface of the substrate. The system also includes a plurality of conductive vias extending through the substrate from the first surface to the second surface. The plurality of conductive vias surrounds the first connector and the second connector. The plurality of conductive vias is electrically coupled together to form a toroidal inductor. A first lead of the toroidal inductor is electrically coupled to the first connector. A second lead of the toroidal inductor is electrically coupled to the second connector.
