ABSTRACT:
Integrated passive component assemblies utilize array shell or array frame receiving structures to isolate and protect discrete passive components and provide a modular configuration for mounting to a substrate. Receiving structure embodiments include a base portion, spacer ribs, and optional side walls. Spacer ribs may be connected or provided in opposing spacer rib portions to effectively isolate adjacent component terminations. Standoff features may be incorporated into select embodiments of the disclosed technology to aid in device mounting and to facilitate post-affixment cleaning and visual termination contact. Discrete passive components in accordance with the present subject matter may include select combinations of resistors, capacitors, inductors, and other suitable devices.
