Abstract:
Embodiments of an apparatus are disclosed that includes a first three dimensional (3D) inductor and a second 3D inductor. The first three dimensional (3D) inductor has a first conductive path shaped as a first two dimensional (2D) lobe laid over a first 3D volume. In addition, the second 3D inductor has a second conductive path, wherein the second 3D inductor is inserted into the first 3D inductor so that the second conductive path at least partially extends through the first 3D volume. Since second 3D inductor is inserted into the first 3D inductor, the 3D inductors may be coupled to one another. Depending on orientation and distances of structures provided by the 3D inductors, the 3D inductors may be weakly or moderately coupled.
