An integrated MIS capacitor has two substantially identical MIS capacitors. A first capacitor comprises a first region of a first conductivity type adjacent to a channel region of the first conductivity type in a semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate has a second conductivity type. A gate electrode is insulated and spaced apart from the channel region of the first capacitor. The second capacitor is substantially identical to the first capacitor and is formed in the same semiconductor substrate. The gate electrode of the first capacitor is electrically connected to the first region of the second capacitor and the gate electrode of the second capacitor is electrically connected to the first region of the first capacitor. In this manner, the capacitors are connected in an anti-parallel configuration. A capacitor which has high capacitance densities, low process complexity, ambipolar operation, low voltage and temperature coefficient, low external parasitic resistance and capacitance and good matching characteristics for use in analog designs that can be integrated with existing semiconductor processes results.
