Abstract
Abstract A multi-layer substrate which should be used with an inductor. The multi-layer substrate has an internal coil which should be connected with the inductor electrically. The internal coil has such an inductance value that the total inductance of the inductor and the internal coil will be a specified value.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
136 words
A multi-layer substrate for use with an inductor which has a bobbin formed about an axis, the multi-layer substrate comprising: a first insulating sheet which has an electrode for electrical connection with the inductor; and a second insulating sheet having a conductor which forms an internal coil with a axis extending along said axis of the inductor to generate a magnetic field in a same direction as a magnetic field generated by the inductor, said conductor being electrically connected with the inductor in series, the internal coil having such an inductance that a total inductance of the internal coil and the inductor is a specified value, said first and second insulating sheets being piled up in a body with the conductor and the electrode being electrically connected through a via hole in the first insulating sheet.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
136 words
A multi-layer substrate for use with an inductor which has a bobbin formed about an axis, the multi-layer substrate comprising: a first insulating sheet which has an electrode for electrical connection with the inductor; and a second insulating sheet having a conductor which forms an internal coil with a axis extending along said axis of the inductor to generate a magnetic field in a same direction as a magnetic field generated by the inductor, said conductor being electrically connected with the inductor in series, the internal coil having such an inductance that a total inductance of the internal coil and the inductor is a specified value, said first and second insulating sheets being piled up in a body with the conductor and the electrode being electrically connected through a via hole in the first insulating sheet.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
A multi-layer substrate as claimed in claim 1, wherein the inductance of the internal coil is smaller than that of the inductor.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
131 words
A multi-layer substrate for use with an inductor which has a bobbin formed about an axis, the multi-layer substrate comprising: an insulating sheet which has an electrode for electrical connection with the inductor; and at least two insulating sheets each having conductors which form an internal coil with an axis extending along said axis of the inductor to generate a magnetic field in a same direction as a magnetic field generated by the inductor, said conductors being electrically connected with the inductor in series, the internal coil having such an inductance that a total inductance of the internal coil and the inductor is a specified value, said insulating sheets being piled up in a body with the conductors and the electrode being electrically connected through via holes in the insulating sheets.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
131 words
A multi-layer substrate for use with an inductor which has a bobbin formed about an axis, the multi-layer substrate comprising: an insulating sheet which has an electrode for electrical connection with the inductor; and at least two insulating sheets each having conductors which form an internal coil with an axis extending along said axis of the inductor to generate a magnetic field in a same direction as a magnetic field generated by the inductor, said conductors being electrically connected with the inductor in series, the internal coil having such an inductance that a total inductance of the internal coil and the inductor is a specified value, said insulating sheets being piled up in a body with the conductors and the electrode being electrically connected through via holes in the insulating sheets.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
A multi-layer substrate as claimed in claim 3, wherein an inductance of the internal coil is set smaller than that of the inductor.
