  • Patent number: 8570707
    Abstract: The present invention provides several scalable integrated circuit high density capacitors and their layout techniques. The capacitors are scaled, for example, by varying the number of metal layers and/or the area of the metal layers used to from the capacitors. The capacitors use different metallization patterns to form the metal layers, and different via patterns to couple adjacent metal layers. In embodiments, optional shields are included as the top-most and/or bottom-most layers of the capacitors, and/or as side shields, to reduce unwanted parasitic capacitance.

  • Publication number: 20130187816
    Abstract: A band-notched ultra-wideband antenna comprises a top layer non-uniform short-circuit metal patch, a middle layer metal radiation patch, and a bottom layer metal patch. The bottom layer metal patch includes a coupled open/short circuit stub which is set close to the middle layer metal radiation patch. The equivalent circuit of the top layer non-uniform short-circuit metal patch is a parallel LC resonator, and the equivalent circuit of the coupled open/short circuit stub is a series LC resonator. The resonant frequency of the top layer non-uniform short-circuit metal patch is equivalent to the resonant frequency of the coupled open/short circuit stub, so as to function as a second-order bandstop filter to yield high notch-band-edge selectivity without increasing total circuit area of the band-notched ultra-wideband antenna.
