The present invention relates to a device with portions of the device on plural substrate surfaces. The device includes a low resistivity substrate having first and second surfaces with a first electrically-conductive device component disposed over a first surface. An intermediate electrically-insulating layer may be disposed between the electrically-conductive component and the low resistivity substrate. A second electrically-conductive component is disposed over the second surface of the low resistivity substrate. A cavity formed in the low resistivity substrate is at least partially filled with a high resistivity material. One or more electrically-conducting pathways are formed in the high resistivity material electrically connecting the first electrically conductive component and the second electrically-conductive component to form a device. Exemplary devices include inductors, capacitors, antennas and active or passive devices incorporating such devices. Vertically integrated device systems can be formed using the device.

Multiple surface integrated devices on low resistivity substrates

A valve for a tire pressure monitoring system in which the valve acts a coaxial conductor to transmit a signal to a receiver presented. A valve stem electrically isolated from a valve pin form the coaxial conductor. In a tire pressure monitoring system, a tire pressure measurement module is positioned inside a tire. In one embodiment, a conductive radiating structure is electrically connected or coupled to the valve pin to receive the tire pressure information signal and transmit it to a receiver. The above configuration further permits a rechargeable battery in the tire pressure measurement module to be recharged via the tire valve. The valve pin and valve stem, being electrically isolated from one another, are used as recharging paths for the battery.
