Abstract
A passive discrete device may include a first asymmetric terminal and a second asymmetric terminal. The passive discrete device may further include first internal electrodes extended to electrically couple to a first side and a second side of the first asymmetric terminal. The passive discrete device may also include second internal electrodes extended to electrically couple to a first side and a second side of the second asymmetric terminal.

- a plurality of second internal electrodes extended to electrically couple to a first side and a second side of the second asymmetric terminal.
A method of fabricating a passive discrete device, comprising:
- plating a plurality of first internal electrodes and a plurality of second internal electrodes within a multilayer ceramic body;
- dipping the multilayer ceramic body at a non-orthogonal angle to define a first asymmetric terminal and a second asymmetric terminal;
- plating the first asymmetric terminal to electrically couple the plurality of first internal electrodes at a first side and a second side of the first asymmetric terminal;
- and
- plating the second asymmetric terminal to electrically couple the plurality of second internal electrodes at a first side and a second side of the second asymmetric terminal.
A passive discrete device, comprising:
- a first asymmetric terminal and a second asymmetric terminal;
- a first means for electrically coupling to a first side and a second side of the first asymmetric terminal;
- and
- a second means for electrically coupling to a first side and a second side of the second asymmetric terminal.
A method of fabricating a passive discrete device, comprising:
- a step for plating a plurality of first internal electrodes and a plurality of second internal electrodes within a multilayer ceramic body;
