Abstract :
This paper deals with assessing the electrical performance of integrated decoupling capacitor arrays, which belong to a new generation of integrated passive components (IPCs). Quasi-static numerical analysis is carried out to obtain the effective lumped capacitance and inductance values for various combinations of excitation voltages applied to the multiterminal device. Complete capacitance matrices of two different families of IPCs are computed and used to estimate the worst case cross-talk between adjacent terminals. Numerical results are validated using data taken with the capacitance bridge
