Abstract

An integrated circuit with a buried layer for increasing the Q of an inductor formed in the integrated circuit. The substrate includes a highly doped buried preserving device and latchup characteristics. The inductor may also include an increased thickness conductive layer in the inductor to further increase Q. The present invention is also directed to a low loss interconnect.
