Abstract

A method and apparatus is provided that pertains to a low inductance capacitor. The capacitor has a first surface electrically interconnected to a plurality of conductive electrodes and one or more second surfaces electrically interconnected to a plurality of electrodes interposed between the electrodes electrically interconnected to the first conductive surface. A dielectric layer separates the layered plurality of electrodes. The one or more second conductive surfaces are positioned within the body of the layered electrodes, such that the distance between the terminations of the first conductive surface and the one or more second conductive surfaces is shortened to lower inductance.
