The multiple electrode monolithic capacitor structures employ a multigap series construction embedded within a single dielectric material (56). A plurality of aligned spaced-apart electrodes (50, 52 and 54) are spaced-apart across the material (56) with gaps formel between each pair of electrodes. Each gap area is bridged by a respective floating electrode 58 and 60 separated by a gap from each pair of spaced-apart electrodes. The voltage rating of such capacitors increases with each gap added across the dielectric. Additionally, the amount of piezoelectric activity occurring in a piezoelectric dielectric is limited by the series gap arrangement to be below that which causes deleterious spurious signals to be generated when said capacitor vibrates. |
