Latest Patents

Yeh’s listed patent, “Asymmetric Spiral Inductor,” describes an inductor formed from a spiral coil, a metal segment, and a connection structure. The coil is substantially located in a first metal layer, with its first terminal at the outermost turn and its second terminal at the innermost turn. A metal segment in a different layer connects to the coil’s inner terminal through the connection structure, while the coil’s outer terminal and the segment’s other terminal serve as the inductor’s two terminals.

The spiral coil has a polygonal shape with more than four sides. Part of the metal segment follows a shape substantially identical to part of the polygon’s contour, a design feature specified in the patent.
