Title: Innovations of Pascal Kunz
Introduction
Pascal Kunz is an accomplished inventor based in Neuchatel, Switzerland. He has made significant contributions to the field of microelectronics, particularly in the development of integrated circuit structures and measuring methods for coils. With a total of 3 patents, his work showcases innovative solutions that enhance the functionality and reliability of electronic devices.
Latest Patents
Kunz's latest patents include a measuring method for detecting short-circuits between the turns of a coil integrated on a chip. This invention involves a method for measuring a chip-integrated structure that includes at least one coil with multiple turns. The process consists of measuring the resistance across the terminals of two portions of the coil, computing the ratio of these resistances, and comparing it to a constant derived from resistance measurements of coils with identical geometry. This method allows for the determination of the presence or absence of a short circuit between the turns of the coil.
Another notable patent is for an integrated circuit structure that features an antenna coil capable of transmitting and receiving data. This structure includes a protective metal ring that does not form a closed circuit on itself, thereby improving the operation of the antenna coil by making it insensitive to the presence of the protective ring.
