Abstract

A method of forming a semiconductor substrate. A substrate is provided. At least one metal wiring level is within the substrate. A first insulative layer is deposited on a surface of the substrate. A portion of a wire bond pad is formed within the first insulative layer. A second insulative layer is deposited on the first insulative layer. An inductor is within the second insulative layer using a patterned plate process. A remaining portion of the wire bond pad is formed within the second insulative layer, wherein at least a portion of the wire bond pad is substantially co-planar with the inductor.
