Abstract
Integrated high frequency balanced-to-unbalanced transformers and inductors suitable for operation in high frequencies, such as radio frequencies. Embodiments disclosed give consideration to issues related to the layout of the top and bottom inductors for the minimization of capacitive effects between layers and methods of manufacturing thereof. A displacement between the conductive paths of the top inductor and the bottom inductor is shown that provides for superior performance over prior art solutions.
