Abstract
Apparatus for integrated capacitors and associated methods are disclosed. In one embodiment, an integrated capacitor includes a first plurality of metal members that are fabricated using a first plurality of metal layers, and are oriented in a first orientation. The integrated capacitor also includes a second plurality of metal members that are fabricated using a second plurality of metal layers. The second plurality of metal members are oriented transverse to the first orientation. The integrated capacitor further includes a third plurality of metal members, which are fabricated using a third plurality of metal layers, and are oriented in the first orientation.
