Abstract
A chip-shaped laminated electronic part including at least one inductor, which comprises a plurality of sheets of an insulating material, and electrically conductive patterns each formed on the surface of each said sheets, said patterns being so connected to form one or more coils to provide at least one inductor. The electronic part is monolythic and is produced by using printing technique whereby wire-winding operation is eliminated.
Claims10
An electronic part including at least one inductor, which comprises a plurality of superposed electrically conductive segmental coil turns having interconnection portions and being partially separated from one another by interposed sheets of electrically insulating magnetic ferrite, said sheets formed to expose said interconnection portions so that said segmental coil turns are interconnected by said interconnection portions to form one or more coils, said coils being superposed on one another in a direction substantially normal to the surfaces of said insulating sheets and being terminated by sheets of electrically insulating magnetic ferrite at both ends of the part, said electronic part being finally formed by sintering said magnetic ferrite.
A process for fabricating an electronic part including at least one inductor, which comprises forming a first layer of an insulating magnetic ferrite, (b) printing a first electrically conductive segmental coil turn having an interconnecting portion on said first ferrite layer, (c) printing a second layer of insulating magnetic ferrite on said first layer and all but said interconnecting portion of said first segmental coil turn, (d) printing a second electrically conductive segmental coil turn having an interconnecting portion on said second layer of insulating magnetic ferrite positioned to connect with said interconnecting portion of said first segmental coil turn, (e) printing a third layer of insulating magnetic ferrite on said second layer and all but said interconnecting portion of said second segmental coil turn, (f) repeating steps (b) through (e) until a desired number of layers is reached, (g) forming a final layer of an insulating magnetic ferrite, and (h) firing the resulting layered body.
