US Patent 7477128 Magnetic components

Disclosed is an apparatus and method for a magnetic component. The magnetic component includes a substrate having a feature and a first conductive pattern disposed on the feature. The magnetic component also includes a permeability material disposed within the feature. A substrate material is disposed on the substrate to facilitate substantial enclosure of the permeability material between the substrate and the substrate material, where the substrate material has a second conductive pattern. The first conductive pattern and the second conductive pattern cooperate to be capable of facilitating magnetic properties of the permeability material.
