    Abstract: Compact coupled inductor designs are disclosed. In an aspect, a coupled inductor comprises a pair of inductors, each inductor comprising an alternating series of metallization structures and wire bonds forming a spiral topology around a common central axis, wherein the pair of inductors are interleaved with each other along the common central axis, such that at least some of the metallization structures of one of the pair of inductors are electrically coupled with at least some of the metallization structures of the other of the pair of inductors, and at least some of the wire bonds of one of the pair of inductors are electrically coupled with at least some of the wire bonds of the other of the pair of inductors. The shapes of the wire bonds can be selected to produce a desired coupling coefficient.

    Abstract: One or more aspects include apparatuses, systems including co-spiral inductors and methods for fabricating the same. In at least one aspect, a co-spiral inductor includes a plurality of turns, each of the plurality of turns being displaced both vertically and horizontally from a next successive turn. The plurality of turns is formed from traces on different metal layers formed on a substrate. The co-spiral inductor includes a plurality of insulators configured to electrically insulate each of the plurality of turns. The co-spiral inductor includes a plurality of interconnects configured to couple each of the plurality of turns to at least one other turn.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) includes a substrate and a first through substrate via (TSV) in the substrate. The first TSV includes a first metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor. The first MIM capacitor includes a first plate composed of a first metallization layer on an inner surface of the first TSV. The first MIM capacitor includes a MIM insulator layer on the first plate. The first MIM capacitor includes a second plate composed of a second metallization layer on the MIM insulator layer. The IC includes a 3D inductor. The 3D inductor includes a second TSV in the substrate. The 3D inductor includes a first trace on a first surface of the substrate, coupled to a first end of the second TSV. The 3D inductor further includes a second trace on a second surface of the substrate and coupled to a second end of the second TSV and a second end of the first TSV.
