    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a micromachine component which is increased in resonance frequency for a filter manufactured by using an MEMS (Microelectromechanical System). SOLUTION: The micromachine component 1 is manufactured on a semiconductor motherboard 10, is provided with input terminals 7, 8 and output terminals 26, 27, and exhibits a filtering function. The component 1 is provided with a metal input coil 2 which is connected to the terminals 7, 8 and can generate a magnetic field when a current flows therethrough; a movable constituent 3 which is connected to the board by at least one deformation portion, includes at least one region 11, 12 formed of a ferromagnetic material, and can move under a force to which the region 11 made of a ferromagnetic material is exposed and which is generated by the magnetic field generated by an input coil 2; and an output member 4 which is connected to the terminals 26, 27 and constitutes a magnetic field sensor capable of generating an electric signal being changeable by the movement of the constituent 3.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compact monolithic integrated circuit with superior electrical characteristics, particularly Q-values, of inductive elements with respect to electrical characteristics. SOLUTION: A monolithic integrated circuit 1 with an incorporated inductive element 20 has a semiconductor substrate layer 2, a passivation layer 4 covering the semiconductor substrate layer 2 and metallic contact pads 5 which are connected to the substrate 2 and pierce the passivation layer 4, in order to have the pad surfaces on the same plane as the top surface 6 of the passivation layer 4. The integrated circuit also includes the whirlpool shape winding 20, formed in a plane parallel with a top surface 6 of the passivation layer 4. The winding 20 consists of copper turns 21-23, 27 and 28 with thicknesses of not smaller than 10 μm. The ends of the winding 20 are extended downward from the winding plane, so as to form extended parts 12 connected to the contact pads 5.

    Abstract: An IC (1), with a thick copper induction winding (20) located above a passivation layer (6) and having depending ends (12) connected to contact pads (5), is new. A new monolithic IC (1) has metallic contact pads (5), extending from flush with the upper surface (6) of a passivation layer (4) to an underlying semiconductor substrate layer (2), and an induction coil winding (20) which is located in a plane parallel to the passivation layer upper surface (6) and which consists of copper turns (21, 22, 23, 27, 28) of greater than 10 microns thickness, the winding ends (12) extending below the winding plane for connection to the contact pads (5). An Independent claim is also included for manufacturing a monolithic IC incorporating an inductive component by: (a) depositing a polyimide or benzocyclobutene layer on a semiconductor substrate (2) which is covered with a passivation layer (4) and which has metallic contact pads (5) extending from the passivation layer upper surface (6) to the substrate (2); (b) depositing a silica layer (16) on the polyimide or benzocyclobutene layer; (c) forming openings in the silica and polyimide or benzocyclobutene layers down to the contact pads (5); (d) applying a metal growth layer and a photosensitive resin layer on the structure; (e) exposing and developing the resin to form the lower face of the inductive component; (f) electrodepositing a copper layer on the exposed zones of the metal growth layer to form the inductive component strip; and (g) removing residues of the resin and the metal growth layer.
