Chip inductor is a small chip in an integrated circuit (IC) which is used in electronic devices to transmit and receive radio frequency (RF) signals to communicate with other electronic devices. Chip inductor can use high or low frequency radio signals as well as frequencies which are self-resonant for communication. The chip inductor is created by a complex process to make it small, functional and are formed with a large provision of silk screened, ferrite wafers and conductive elements which are generally in the shape of the letter “U.” Each element’s end portion passes through holes of the wafers, to the bottom points of the wafers. Then, the wafers are stacked on one another and an electric current passes through the U-shaped conductive element found throughout the chip. A resulting coil is formed, and the chips are sometimes called an inductor coil.
