Abstract:
A semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor die and an integrated capacitor formed over the semiconductor die. The integrated capacitor is configured to receive a high voltage signal. A transimpedance amplifier is formed in the semiconductor die. An avalanche photodiode is disposed over or adjacent to the semiconductor die. The integrated capacitor is coupled between the avalanche photodiode and a ground node. A resistor is coupled between a high voltage input and the avalanche photodiode. The resistor is an integrated passive device (IPD) formed over the semiconductor die. A first terminal of the integrated capacitor is coupled to a ground voltage node. A second terminal of the integrated capacitor is coupled to a voltage greater than 20 volts. The integrated capacitor comprises a plurality of interdigitated fingers in one embodiment. In another embodiment, the integrated capacitor comprises a plurality of vertically aligned plates.
