Multi-layer ceramic capacitors as decoupling capacitor were fabricated by dielectric composition with a high dielectric constant. The fabricated decoupling capacitors were embedded in the PCB of the 10G RF transceiver module and evaluated for the characteristics of electrical noise by the level of AC input voltage. In order to further improve the electrical properties of the $BaTiO_3$ based composite, glass frit, MgO, $Y_2O_3$, $Mn_3O$, $V_2O_5$, $BaCO_3$, $SiO_2$, and $Al_2O_3$ were used as additives. The electrical properties of the composites were determined by various amounts of additives and optimum sintering temperature. As a result of the optimized composite, it was possible to obtain a density of $5.77g/cm^3$, a dielectric constant of 1994, and an insulation resistance of $2.91{\times}10^{12}{\Omega}$ at an additive content of 5wt% and a sintering temperature of $1250^{\circ}C$. After forming a $2.5{\mu}m$ green sheet using the doctor blade method, a total of 77 layers were laminated and sintered at $1180^{\circ}C$. A decoupling capacitor with a size of $0.6mm(W){\times}0.3mm(L){\times}0.3mm(T)$ (width, length and thickness, respectively) and a capacitance of 100 nF was embedded using a PCB process for the 10G RF Transceiver modules. In the range of AC input voltage 400mmV @ 500kHz to 2200mV @ 900kHz, the embedded 10G RF Transceiver modules evaluated that it has better electrical performance than the non-embedded modules.

In this paper a embedded decoupling capacitor design with gap structure will be discussed. A novel structure is modeling and analization by High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS). Proposed capacitor have $2m{\times}2m$ in rectangular shape. The film thickness of copper/dielectric film/substrate is respectively 35um/20um/35um. A dielectric layer of BaTiO3/epoxy has the relative permittivity of 25. Compare of the planar decoupling capacitor, capacitance densities of this structure in the range of $55{\mu}F$/mm2 have been obtained with 50um gap while capacitance densities of planar structure $55{\mu}F$/mm2 in the same size. The frequency dependent behavior of capacitors is numerically extracted over a wide frequency bandwidth 500MHz-7GHz. The decoupling capacitor can work at high frequency band increasing the gap size.

We proposed an embedded capacitor with the unique electrode structure, which electrodes are located on the same plane and dielectric gap was formed by electrodes. We named it 'Gap type EC', and it was analyzed by the FEM(Finite element Method) program tool. The resonant frequency of Cap type EC was obtained at more higher frequency region. Also, resonant frequency was changed with the magnitude and thickness of electrodes. The Gap type EC with the dielectric gap of $50{\mu}m$ showed capacitance density of $55pF/cm^2$. This value is the higher than that of conventional EC. So, we concluded that the Gap type EC can be a good candidate for high frequency decoupling.

최근 LSI speed의 고속화에 따라, SSN (Simultaneous Switching Noise)이 매우 큰 문제가 되고 있다. 이에 PDN에 대한 많은 해결책들이 제시되고 있으나 가장 저비용 고효율을 지향할 수 있는 방법이 현재 사용되고 있는 유기기판에 Capacitor를 내장하여 로 사용하는 방법이다. Decoupling capacitor를 두께가 밟은 유기기판에 구현하기 위해서는 유전율이 큰 물질을 사용하는 것이 좋은데 본 연구에서는 $BaTiO_3$를 epoxy 에 혼합하여 10um 두께의 필름으로 제작한 후 유기기판 제조 공정에 사용하여 유기기판을 구현하였다. 이렇게 구현된 capacitor 내장 유기기판을 2 stub의 간단한 회로를 구현하여 유전율 등을 측정하였으며, 고주파 전산모사를 통하여 capacitor의 용량 변화에 따른 고주파 특성의 변화를 연구하였다.

All kinds of electronic machinery including portable communication system are being smaller size and are used at high frequency. It generates a lot of unwanted noise signals called electromagnetic interface (EMI). This paper presents an analysis result of EMI generation in VLSI and propose new circuits to minimize of EMI using I/O driver with parallel buffer architecture and distributed decoupling capacitor in a chip. The proposed circuits are evaluated with i8052 MCU which is shown reducing of delta current 1/3 times and improvement of EMI more 10dBuV compared with conventional processors.

Low-temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) have turned out to be very promising technology in accordance with the rapid developments in semiconductor technology. The demands for compact electrical assemblies, smaller power loss as well as high signal density can be fulfilled by LTCC. And for the multi-layered ceramic devices with embedded passive components such as high dielectric constant decoupling capacitor, LTCC materials require the several conditions to avoid delamination and internal cracks. For the present study, diopside-based glass is chosen as the LTCC substrate material in view of its high coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). From the experimental resultsn the influence of each element on the CTE change can be revealed.

고주파 잡음 발생과 고집적화 문제 해결을 위해 고용량 디커플링 캐패시터를 기판에 내장하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 초고주파 환경에서 고용량 기판 내장형 디커플링 캐패시터로의 응용을 위해 $BaTiO_3$박막을 에어로졸 데포지션 법을 이용하여 12~0.2 ${\mu}m$의 두께로 제조하였고 그 유전특성을 조사하였다. 그결과, 1 MHz에서 permittivity가 70, loss tangent은 3% 이하였으며, capacitance density는 $1{\mu}m$의 두께에서 59 nF/$cm^2$이었다. 하지만, 박막의 두께가 $1{\mu}m$ 이하에서는 XRD를 통해 결정성이 확인 되었음에도 큰 누설전류로 인해 유전특성을 확인할 수 없었다. 이 누설전류의 발생 원인을 조사하기 위해 $BaTiO_3$박막의 표면의 미세구조를 SEM으로 관찰한 결과 여러 결함들이 확인되었으며, 또한 전극 직경의 크기를 1.5 mm에서 0.33 mm로 작게 변화시킴으로서 그 유전특성을 조사하여 박막의 불균일성과 박막화의 가능성을 확인하였다.
