A self-routing capacitor for an integrated circuit having: a first electrode comprising a first base region and a first finger, the first finger extending from a wall of the first base region in a first direction; a second electrode comprising a second base region and a second finger; the second finger extending from a wall of the second base region in a second direction substantially parallel to and opposing the first direction, the second finger coupled to the first finger; a third electrode comprising a third base region and a third finger, the third finger extending from a first wall of the third base in the second direction; and a fourth electrode comprising a fourth finger, the fourth finger extending from a second wall of the third base region in the first direction. The capacitor being coupled to other metal layers through a base region of an electrode.
