Provided herein are devices comprising a printed wiring board that comprise, singulated capacitors fabricated from known good, thin-film, fired-on-foil capacitors. Provided are methods of incorporating the singulated capacitors into the build-up layers of a printed wiring board to minimize impedance. The singulated capacitors have a pitch that allows each power and ground terminal of an IC to be directly connected to a power and ground electrode, respectively, of its own singulated capacitor. Using a feedstock of known good, fired-on-foil capacitors allows for improved PWB yield.

It is found that by using a nickel foil as the substrate and one electrode of the capacitor and by controlling the oxygen partial pressure in the range of 10−8 to 10−10 atmospheres during the crystallization heat treatment of the barium titanate, the leakage current can be maintained at adequate values without a reoxygenation step.

An improved silicon building block is disclosed. In an embodiment, the silicon building block has at least two vias through it. The silicon building block is doped and the vias filled with a first material, and, optionally, selected ones of the vias filled instead with a second material. In an alternative embodiment, regions of the silicon building block have metal deposited on them.

Disclosed are a method of making a dielectric on a metal foil, and a method of making a large area capacitor that includes a dielectric on a metal foil. A dielectric precursor layer and the base metal foil are prefired at a prefiring temperature in the range of 350 to 650° C. in a moist atmosphere that also comprises a reducing gas. The prefired dielectric precursor layer and base metal foil are subsequently fired at a firing temperature in the range of 700 to 1200° C. in an atmosphere having an oxygen partial pressure of less than about 10−6 atmospheres to produce a dielectric. The area of the capacitor made according to the disclosed method may be greater than 10 mm2, and subdivided to create a multiple individual capacitor units that may be embedded in printed wiring boards. The dielectric is typically comprised of crystalline barium titanate or crystalline barium strontium titanate.
