An ultra-wideband assembly is provided. The assembly includes a non-conductive tapered core having an outer surface, a proximate end and a distal end being larger than proximate end. The assembly includes a conductive wire having a proximate end and a distal end and being wound about at least a portion of the non-conductive tapered core. The proximate end of the conductive wire extends away from the proximate end of the tapered core and is being conductively coupled to a micro-strip line of a circuit board. The distal end of the conductive wire extends away from the distal end of the tapered core. The conductive wire contacts at least a portion of the outer surface of the non-conductive tapered core. The assembly includes a supporting bracket coupled to the non-conductive tapered core. The supporting bracket is configured to dispose the non-conductive tapered core at a predetermined angle to the circuit board.

Ultra-wideband assembly system and method

Disclosed are apparatus and methodology for inexpensive realization of one or more secondary capacitors within a monolithic body that already includes a first, larger capacitor to provide ultra wideband structures. Alternating layers of electrodes are provided with arm portions that embrace portions of adjacent electrode layers so as to create additional coupling effects within the capacitor structure thereby producing multiple additional equivalent capacitor structures within the device.

Ultra broadband capacitor

An ultra-wideband assembly in an electrical circuit having a circuit board with a conductive micro-strip line is provided. The assembly includes a non-conductive tapered core having an outer surface, a distal end, and a proximate end. The distal end is being larger than proximate end. The assembly includes a conductive wire having a proximate end and a distal end and being wound about at least a portion of the non-conductive tapered core. The proximate end of the conductive wire extends away from the proximate end of the non-conductive tapered core and is being conductively coupled to the micro-strip line of the circuit board. The distal end of the conductive wire extends away from the distal end of the non-conductive tapered core. The conductive wire contacts at least a portion of the outer surface of the non-conductive tapered core. The assembly includes a supporting bracket coupled to the non-conductive tapered core. The bracket includes a base portion and a core attachment portion. The base portion is being conductively coupled to the circuit board. The core attachment portion is being coupled to the distal end of the non-conductive tapered core and is further being conductively coupled to the distal end of the conductive wire. While being coupled to the non-conductive tapered core, the supporting bracket is configured to dispose the non-conductive tapered core at a predetermined angle to the circuit board.
