An MIM capacitor includes a substrate, a capacitor part having a structure in which a bottom electrode, a dielectric layer and a top electrode are laminated in order, and a ground shield layer formed between the bottom electrode of the capacitor part and the substrate and connected to a predetermined ground terminal. The ground shield layer may be formed of metal or polysilicon, or a layer doped with impurities having a valence of three or five. Also, the ground shield layer has a predetermined patterned structure. Thus, it is possible to minimize power loss due to the substrate.

A sigma-delta modulation method with low complexity is provided. To this end, in the present invention, an input signal is forwarded and an output signal is fed back to thus reduce the range of the noise transfer function of the sigma-delta modulator and to lower the frequency offset and the phase noise at low frequencies. A sigma-delta modulator for a frequency synthesizer may include one or more modulation units which are connected in series and perform a sigma-delta modulation to an input signal and a provided accumulated signal using a signal which is weighted with a feedback coefficient; and an output adder which adds an output signal from a terminal section of the modulation units and the input signal, and outputs the added signal for feedback to the modulation units.
