Abstract

A passive circuit element is disclosed. The passive circuit element includes an array of conductive pads arranged on a substrate such that a gap is formed between each of the conductive pads. The passive circuit element further includes a first wire electrically connected to a first conductive pad of the array of conductive pads such that the first wire passes through a first gap formed between a second conductive pad and a third conductive pad. The passive circuit element further includes a second wire electrically connected to a fourth conductive pad of the array of conductive pads such that the second wire passes through the first gap. At least one of the second and third conductive pads has a substantially planar side facing toward the first gap.
