Jong Duck Kim

Meet Jong Duck Kim: A South Korean inventor who has earned a name in the electronics industry with his innovative patents. With a whopping 232 patents to his name, Kim is an expert in designing a multilayer electronic component with unmatched precision.

Jong Duck Kim's latest patents are the multilayer electronic components that can be used in various electronic devices. The first patent allows controlling the shapes of internal electrodes, which means that when a short-circuit occurs between them, a short-circuited portion may be opened up by an overcurrent, serving as a fuse. Moreover, this patent also helps reduce the equivalent series inductance (ESL) at a high frequency, which optimizes the functionality of the device.

The second patent is also about multilayer electronic components that offer improved design and performance. The body of these components includes a first internal electrode and a second internal electrode. A first external electrode is on the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth surfaces, while a second external electrode is disposed on one or more of the first and second surfaces. The ratio W/L is 0.95 or more and 1.05 or less, where L is a length of the body, and W is a width of the body.

Kim has worked for some of the world's leading tech companies, such as Samsung-Electro Mechanics Co., Ltd. and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. Kim has also collaborated with his colleagues Hyun Jin Yoo and Tae Yoon Kim, who were part of his team working on the patents.

Jong Duck Kim is an exceptional inventor who has changed the way we look at electronic components. His contributions to the industry have helped develop sophisticated multilayer electronic components with improved designs and functionalities. With his 232 patents, Jong Duck Kim proves to be an inspiration for budding inventors looking to make significant contributions to the field of electronics.
