    Abstract: A three-dimensional inductor is formed in an integrated circuit die using conductive through-body-vias which pass through the body of the die and contact one or more metal interconnect layers on the front side of the die and terminate on the back side of the die. In another embodiment, the through-body-vias may pass through a dielectric material disposed in a plug in the body of the die. In yet another aspect, a transformer may be formed by coupling multiple inductors formed using through-body-vias. In still another aspect, a three-dimensional inductor may include conductors formed of stacks of on chip metallization layers and conductive through-layer-vias disposed in insulation layers between metallization layers. Other embodiments are described.

    Abstract: Series switches for power delivery. A regulator operated as a current source is arranged in parallel with a switched capacitor divider. A switched capacitor divider is configured in series with a plurality of linear regulators with each regulating one of a plurality of voltage outputs from the switched capacitor divider. In another embodiment, a series switch bridge has a first pair of switches connected in series with a second pair of switches across a voltage input, each switch within a pair of switches is switched in-phase with the other while the first pair of switches is switched out of phase with the second pair of switches. A balancing capacitor is coupled across one switch in both the first and second pair to be in parallel when either of the pair of switches is closed to reduce a charge imbalance between the switches.

    Abstract: Drive and startup circuits are described particularly suitable for use with a switched capacitor divider. In one example, a drive circuit has a level shifter coupled to a gate of each switch of a switched capacitor drive circuit to couple alternating current into the respective gate, a positive phase low side driver coupled to each level shifter to drive the gates of the top switch path through the respective level shifters, and a negative phase low side driver coupled to each level shifter to drive gates of the bottom switch path through the respective level shifters. A startup circuit, such as a capacitive soft start circuit may be used to slow the application of the current to each switch.

    Abstract: A technique to provide a compact integration of inductor-capacitor resonator a capacitor having a top plate and a bottom plate embedding a dielectric layer. The top and bottom plates are substantially parallel to each other. An inductor having a first end is coupled to the capacitor at the bottom plate. The inductor has N turns surrounding the bottom plate in a spiral geometry. The inductor is co-planar to one of the top and bottom plates and ends at a second end.
