Claims14
A device, comprising:
- a first inductor having a first inductive profile;
- a first circuit component coupled to the first inductor;
- a second inductor having a second inductive profile;
- a second circuit component coupled to the second inductor;
- a third inductor;
- a third circuit component inductively coupled to the third inductor;
