A distributed LC filter structure is disclosed. The distributed LC filter structure provides simultaneously a distributed inductance and a distributed capacitance in the same structure. Accordingly, discrete passive elements are eliminated and high, homogenous integration is achieved. Interconnections between the distributed inductance and the distributed capacitance are tailored to leverage a parasitic inductance of the distributed capacitance to increase the overall inductance of the distributed LC filter structure. Similarly, the interconnections are tailored to leverage a parasitic capacitance resulting from the distributed inductance to add up with the distributed capacitance augmenting the overall capacitance of the structure.

An integrated circuit includes a semiconductor substrate and a plurality of dielectric layers over the semiconductor substrate, including a top dielectric layer. A metal plate or metal coil is located over the top dielectric layer; a metal ring is located over the top dielectric layer and substantially surrounds the metal plate or metal coil. A protective overcoat overlies the metal ring and overlies the metal plate or metal coil. A trench opening is formed through the protective overcoat, with the trench opening exposing the top dielectric layer between the metal plate/coil and the metal ring, the trench opening substantially surrounding the metal plate or metal coil.

Embodiments of the present invention provide an inductively coupled filter and a WiFi module. The inductively coupled filter includes a first circuit, where the first circuit is disposed on a first substrate; and a second circuit, where the second circuit is disposed on a second substrate; and the first substrate and the second substrate are disposed opposite to each other, so that a coil inductor in the first circuit and a coil inductor in the second circuit form a mutual induction structure. In the inductively coupled filter in the embodiments of the present invention, the coil inductors are disposed on two substrates respectively. This can reduce an area occupied by the inductively coupled filter on each package substrate.

The second metal electrode is disjoint from the first metal electrode. The first capacitor is accessed through the first metal electrode without accessing the second capacitor through the second metal electrode. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
