Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A capacitor network formed on a substrate, comprising
a bond pad over a top side of the substrate;
a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor positioned over the top side of the substrate and along one side of the bond pad, 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; and
a plurality of through-substate vias, wherein:
the first metal layer of the MIM capacitor is electrically coupled to the bond pad by a metal trace that extends across and over the top side of the substrate between the first metal layer of the MIM capacitor and the bond pad;
the second metal layer is electrically coupled to a ground plane on a bottom side of the substrate by the plurality of through-substate vias; and
the plurality of through-substrate vias are positioned along a number of different sides of the first metal layer, the second metal layer, and the insulator layer of the MIM capacitor.
