For resistors, capacitors and inductors, technological turnkey solutions are offered by major manufacturers and novel technologies are also under development. A further boost of functionality will be accomplished by the integration of active chips into the board. Two approaches for chip integration into the board will be discussed in detail: the chip in polymer (CIP) approach and the embedding of chips into flexible PWBs via flip chip process.en621journal article
