The evolution of technology continues to drive innovation in the electronics industry. Consumers maintain a steadfast expectation for products to consistently enter the market in smaller, cheaper and faster forms with enhanced quality, performance and functionality. Consequently, the consumer electronics industry remains motivated to strive for enabling technology that will provide solutions to these everlasting requirements.

Embedding passive components in printed circuit boards is one of those enabling technologies, and it is becoming more enticing for PCB manufacturers to include in their process (Ref. 1, 2). In order to fit more ICs and passive components ...
