Utilization of Buried Capacitance
Embedding capacitive layers inside the PCB can reduce the number ofchip decoupling capacitors on the PCB surface, while greatlyimproving the performance of the power distribution system. Thistechnical paper, presented at DesignCon 2008, compares theperformance of a standard PCB design to one using various types ofburied capacitance layers with a reduced number of SMT decouplingcapacitors. The paper was authored by Jun Fan, University ofMissouri-Rolla; Norm Smith and Jim Knighten, Teradata: JohnAndresakis, Oak-Mitsui Technologies; Yoshi Fukawa, TechDream; andMark Harvey, Sanmina-SCI.
