Abstract

An inductor shielding structure includes a first conductive layer including a plurality of first conductive lines having a first width and a plurality of second conductive lines having a second width. The inductor shielding structure further includes a second conductive layer over the first conductive layer. The second conductive layer includes at least one third conductive line having a third width and a plurality of fourth conductive lines having a fourth width. Each conductive line of the at least one third conductive line is parallel to each conductive line of the plurality of first conductive lines. Each conductive line of the plurality of fourth conductive lines is parallel to each conductive line of the plurality of second conductive lines. The first width is different from the second width, or the third width is different from the fourth width.
