Claim 3:
4. An apparatus comprising:
a laminate including:
a dielectric layer having a first surface and a second surface opposed to the first surface; and
a conductive layer forming a circuit element overlying the first surface of the dielectric layer; and

a magnetic layer over the conductive layer, wherein the magnetic layer includes a first tie bar segment forming the first edge surface of the magnetic layer, a second tie bar segment forming the second edge surface of the magnetic layer, and a center portion between the first tie bar segment and the second tie bar segment, the center portion being wider than either the first tie bar segment or the second tie bar segment,
wherein a first edge surface of the magnetic layer is coplanar with a first edge surface of the laminate, and
wherein a second edge surface of the magnetic layer is coplanar with a second edge surface of the laminate.
