An apparatus (100) for reducing inductance in a capacitor having a first terminal (12) and a spaced-apart second terminal (14), includes a first conductive plate (120) and a second conductive plate (140). The first conductive plate (120) is electrically coupled to the first terminal (12). The second conductive plate (140) is electrically coupled to the second terminal (14) and is disposed in parallel with the first conductive plate (120) so as to overlap at least a portion of the first conductive plate (120). An insulating member (122 and 142) is disposed between the first conductive plate (120) and the second conductive plate (140). The insulating member (122 and 142) insulates the first conductive plate (120) from the second conductive plate (140).
