The plurality of electrically conductive material layers comprise first and second patterns. The first pattern comprises at least a first pair of overlaying areas free of the electrically conductive material, and the second pattern comprises at least a second pair of overlaying areas free of the electrically conductive material. The first pair of areas overlay areas of the second pattern having the electrically conductive material and the second pair of areas overlay areas of the first pattern having the electrically conductive material. The plurality of electrically conductive material layers are electrically isolated from one another by the dielectric layers.
Abstract:
A capacitor with low equivalent series inductance includes multiple electrode layers arranged in parallel with alternating ones of the electrode layers connected together to form the two electrodes of the capacitor. A first set of the electrode layers are connected by an outer wall. A second set of the electrode layers are connected by a central post. Terminals on the capacitor can be spaced on a surface so that signals can be conveniently routed when the capacitor is mounted on or in a printed circuit board or integrated circuit package. Terminals can be included on opposing surfaces of the capacitors to provide for stacking. Additionally, one of the terminals substantially surrounds the other terminal and can provide electromagnetic shielding.

A capacitive precursor includes electrically conductive material layers stacked on a substrate. The electrically conductive layers provide first and second patterns. The patterns each include overlaying areas free of the electrically conductive material. The first pair of areas overlay areas of the second pattern having the electrically conductive material and the second pair of areas overlay areas of the first pattern having the electrically conductive material. Dielectric layers are interposed between neighboring electrically conductive material layers for electrical isolation. One or more capacitive precursors can be dropped onto or into a board and during assembly of a packaged semiconductor device and have electrically conducting layers associated with its respective plates connected together to form a capacitor during assembly using conventional assembly steps.
