چکیده

Embedded capacitance is an alternative to discrete decoupling capacitors and is achieved by enhancing the natural capacitance between power and ground planes. New materials have recently been developed by competing companies that promise to reduce the cost and improve the performance of boards with embedded capacitance. This paper introduces simple models for embedded capacitance boards and examines the properties of these boards that have the greatest impact on their effectiveness.

Mitigating Power Bus Noise with Embedded Capacitance in PCB Designs

This paper investigates the power bus noise and power bus impedance of printed circuit boards with four different kinds of embedded capacitance. These boards have power-ground plane pairs separated by a very thin layer of material with high dielectric permittivity. It is shown that embedded capacitance effectively reduces power bus noise over the entire frequency range evaluated (up to 5 GHz).

The NEMI Roadmap Perspective on Integrated Passives

Today's circuit boards have a large percentage of their area taken up by passive components. This space has become a target for further reduction of the system's sizes. A designer has several choices in how to accomplish the implementation of passive functions. These choices include discrete components, arrays, networks and Integrated Passive Devices (IPDs) and embedded components. The choices ...

The Development of a Closed-Form Expression for the Input Impedance of Power-Return Plane Structures

In multilayer printed circuit boards, the noise on the power bus is influenced by the impedance between the power and ground planes. Power-bus noise estimates require an accurate estimate of the power-bus input impedance. This paper develops a closed-form estimate of the input impedance for circular power-return plane structures. When the structure is lossy (e.g., boards employing embedded capa...
