A half bridge circuit includes a sapphire substrate, a GaN upper switch on the sapphire substrate, a GaN lower switch on the sapphire substrate and coupled to the GaN upper switch, a first conductor coupled to the upper switch, a second conductor coupled to the lower switch, and a capacitor. A portion of the first conductor and a portion of the second conductor are on a plane vertically separated from the upper switch and the lower switch by a height, and the capacitor is coupled between the portion of the first conductor and the portion of the second conductor.
