DISCRETE THIN FILM CAPACITOR

摘要

A decoupling capacitor for mounting on an integrated circuit multi-layer ceramic. A bottom layer electrode, is evaporated or sputtered onto a carrier. A high dielectric layer is deposited followed by the upper metallurgy and a top isolating layer. Via holes are etched to respective electrode layers, BLM deposited thereon followed by solder balls. The electrode is mounted onto the substrate, solder balls face down in contact with a compatible footprint.
