Abstract:
New types, structures, and arrangements of capacitor networks for harmonic control and other purposes are presented. In one example, an integrated device includes a capacitor network and one or more power devices. The capacitor network includes a bond pad and metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors. The capacitors include a first metal layer, a second metal layer, an insulator layer between the first and second metal layers, and one or more through-substrate vias. The first metal layer is coupled to the bond pad, and the second metal layer is coupled to a ground plane on a bottom side of the substrate by the vias. A number of capacitors can be arranged around the bond pad in the capacitor network for a tailored capacitance. A matching network in the integrated device can incorporate the capacitor network to reduce loss, provide better harmonic termination, and achieve better phase alignment for the power devices.
