Metal-insulator-metal capacitor over conductive layer
Abstract:
A method of fabricating a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor reduces the number of masks and processing steps compared to conventional techniques. A conductive redistribution layer (RDL) is patterned on a semiconductor chip. A MIM dielectric layer is deposited over the RDL. A first conductive layer of a MIM capacitor is deposited over the MIM dielectric layer. The MIM dielectric layer is patterned using a MIM conductive layer mask. The conductive redistribution layer includes two RDL nodes that extend under the first conductive layer of the MIM capacitor. A conductive via or bump extends through the MIM dielectric layer and couples one of the RDL nodes to the first conductive layer of the MIM capacitor.
