PASSIVE COMPONENT MODULE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18498188 titled 'PASSIVE COMPONENT MODULE
The abstract describes a passive component module with a redistribution layer structure that includes a passive electronic component, conductive metal trace, dielectric layer, and exposed terminals.
- The passive component module has opposite first and second sides, with a base extending to the second side.
- The redistribution layer structure includes a passive electronic component with first and second component terminals.
- A conductive metal trace forms at least a portion of the passive electronic component.
- A dielectric layer abuts a portion of the conductive metal trace.
- A first terminal exposed along the first side is electrically coupled to the first component terminal.
- A second terminal, spaced apart from the first terminal and exposed along the first side, is electrically coupled to the second component terminal.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in electronic circuits and systems where passive components are required. - It can be integrated into various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and computers.
Problems Solved: - Provides a compact and efficient solution for incorporating passive components into electronic systems. - Enhances the reliability and performance of electronic circuits.
Benefits: - Saves space and simplifies the design of electronic systems. - Improves the overall functionality and durability of electronic devices.
Commercial Applications: - This technology can be utilized by electronics manufacturers to enhance the performance and reliability of their products. - It can be integrated into a wide range of consumer electronics to improve functionality and reduce size constraints.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the passive component module improve the efficiency of electronic circuits? 2. What are the key advantages of using this technology in consumer electronics?
Original Abstract Submitted
A passive component module includes opposite first and second sides, a base extending to the second side, and a redistribution layer structure extending between the base and the first side, the redistribution layer structure including: a passive electronic component with a first component terminal and a second component terminal; a conductive metal trace that forms at least a portion of the passive electronic component; a dielectric layer abutting a portion of the conductive metal trace; a first terminal exposed along the first side and electrically coupled to the first component terminal; and a second terminal spaced apart from the first terminal and exposed along the first side, the second terminal electrically coupled to the second component terminal.
