Internally overlapped conditioners

Method for making internally overlapped conditioners

Disclosed are energy conditioner structures, method of making and using them wherein the structure comprises a sequence of conductive layers including a first A layer, a G layer, and a first B layer; wherein said first A layer, said G layer, and said first B layer are each conductive, and are conductively isolated from one another in said energy conditioner structure; wherein said first A layer includes a first A layer main body and a first A layer tab, said first B layer includes a first B layer main body and a first B layer tab, and said G layer includes a G layer main body and a G layer first tab; wherein said G layer is in a plane between a plane containing said first A layer and a plane containing said first B layer; where the main body of at least one of said first A layer and said first B layer opposes a portion of said G layer main body; wherein two of said first A layer tab, said first B layer tab, and said G layer first tab are on a first side of said energy conditioner, and the remaining one of said first A layer tab, said first B layer tab, and said G layer first tab is on a second side of said energy conditioner, and said second side is opposite from said first side; and said method comprising applying electrical energy to one of said first A layer, said G layer, and said first B layer.

Energy conditioner structures

An energy conditioner structure comprising a first electrode (), a second electrode (), and a shield structure () provides improved energy conditioning in electrical circuits. The structures may exist as discrete components or part of an integrated circuit. The shield structure in the energy conditioner structure does not electrically connect to any circuit element.

Internally shielded energy conditioner

A structure comprising: a first electrode; a second electrode; a shielding electrode provides improved energy conditioning when used in electrical circuits. The structures may exist as discrete components, as part of an interposer or a first level interconnects, or a part of an integrated circuit.

Shielded energy conditioner

The present invention is a component carrier consisting of a plate of insulating material having a plurality of apertures for accepting the leads of a thru-hole differential and common mode filter. Another embodiment consists of a surface mount component carrier comprised of a disk of insulating material having a plurality of apertures. The same concept for the above described carrier is also incorporated into several alternate embodiments, either independently, embedded within electronic connectors. The overall configuration and electrical characteristics of the concepts underlying the present inventions are also described as an energy conditioning circuit assembly which encompasses the combination of differential and common mode filters and component carriers optimized for such filters. The various embodiments of component carriers provide increased physical support and protection to differential and common mode filters and substantially improve the electrical characteristics of the filters due to the increased shielding provided by the carriers. Embodiments of the carrier energy conditioning circuit assembly include integrated circuit construction for a differential and common mode filter coupled to the power bus of an integrated circuit.
