Patent ID: 7471137

Claim:
A voltage divider arrangement comprising a reference terminal ( 1 ), an input terminal ( 2 ) for receiving an input signal with respect to said reference terminal ( 1 ), an output terminal ( 3 ) for supplying an output signal with respect to said reference terminal ( 1 ), and a resistor arrangement ( 20 ) arranged on a substrate ( 50 ) and coupled between said input terminal ( 2 ) and said reference terminal ( 1 ), wherein a distributed compensation capacitance structure ( 10 ) for compensating the influence of a distributed parasitic capacitance is arranged between said resistor arrangement ( 20 ) and said substrate ( 50 ); wherein said distributed compensation capacitance structure ( 10 ) is separated from said resistor arrangement ( 20 ) and said substrate ( 50 ) by respective insulation layers ( 30 , 40 ).
