Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 19:
20. A capacitor network formed on a substrate, comprising
a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor positioned over a top side of the substrate, the MIM capacitor comprising a first metal layer, a second metal layer, and an insulator layer between the first metal layer and the second metal layer;
a bond pad over the top side of the substrate and positioned beside the MIM capacitor; and
a through-substate via positioned beside the MIM capacitor, wherein:
the first metal layer of the MIM capacitor is electrically coupled to the bond pad by a first metal trace that extends across and over a first region of the top side of the substrate that is between the MIM capacitor and the bond pad positioned beside the MIM capacitor;
the second metal layer of the MIM capacitor is electrically coupled to the through-substate via by a second metal trace that extends across and over a second region of the top side of the substrate that is between the MIM capacitor and the through-substate via positioned beside the MIM capacitor; and
the through-substate via is electrically coupled to a ground plane on a bottom side of the substrate.
