            Abstract : 
Embedded capacitance is an alternative to discrete decoupling capacitors and is achieved by enhancing the natural capacitance between closely spaced power and return planes. This paper employs a simple cavity model to investigate the features affecting the power bus impedance of printed circuit boards with embedded capacitance.
