<p>A semiconductor chip carrier for carrying a single chip (15) and having a built-in capacitor, comprises a ceramic insulator body (2) having first and second opposite main faces, and a plurality of conductor lines (6,7) comprising power lines, ground lines and signal lines for forming connections to said chip extending through said ceramic body (2) from one main face to the other. A layer (3) of ceramic dielectric material is embedded in said ceramic body remote from said main faces, and electrode layers embedded in the ceramic body (2) contact the capacitor layer (3), to form the built-in capacitor. The power and ground lines (16) pass through and contact the capacitor layer (3) and are connected to said electrodes so that said capacitor provides capacitance between the power lines and the ground lines. To minimize noise generation and improve signal processing speed, the signal lines (7) do not contact said capacitor layer (3) and extend past it at locations spaced laterally from it.</p> |
