1. An inductor having a first port and a second port for use in an integrated circuit device, the inductor comprising:

  • a high-resistivity substrate having a top-side, a bottom-side, a first sidewall and a second sidewall;

    a plurality of substantially parallel top-side conductive traces on the top-side of the substrate;

    a plurality of substantially parallel bottom-side conductive traces on the bottom-side of the substrate;

    a plurality of sidewall conductive traces on the first sidewall of the substrate, each of the plurality of sidewall conductive traces on the first sidewall coupling one of the plurality of top-side conductive traces to one of the plurality of bottom-side conductive traces; and

    a plurality of sidewall conductive traces on the second sidewall of the substrate, each of the plurality of sidewall conductive traces on the second sidewall coupling one of the plurality of top-side conductive traces to one of the plurality of bottom-side conductive traces;

    the plurality of top-side conductive traces, bottom-side conductive traces and sidewall conductive traces forming a continuous conductive path from the first port to the second port of the inductor.
