Abstract
Systems and methods described in this disclosure are related to fabrication and utilization of two-terminal electrical components that may have terminations with reduced width. Components, such as the ones described herein may be used to increase the density of components in electrical devices, as they may reduce a separation distance between devices that lead to solder bridging. Methods for fabrication are also described, including the use of ceramic layers that may provide reduction in parasitic capacitance and/or inductances.
