An apparatus and fabrication process for a capacitor formed in conjunction with a dual damascene process. A bottom capacitor plate is electrically connected to an overlying first conductive via formed according to the dual damascene process. A top capacitor plate is connected to an overlying second conductive via. A dielectric material is disposed between the top and the bottom plates. The capacitor is formed by successively forming the bottom plate, the dielectric layer, and the top plate, patterning these layers as required after their formation. The first conductive via is formed over and electrically connected to the bottom plate and the second conductive via is formed over and connected to the top capacitor plate thereby providing for interconnection of the capacitor to other circuit elements by way of the dual damascene conductive runners connected to the conductive vias. |
