Abstract
A high power radiofrequency (RF) capacitor, integrated circuit board/capacitor and methods for manufacture therefor can include a dielectric substrate, and a first metallic layer and a second metallic layer that can be deposited on opposite sides of the dielectric substrate, and a ground plane that can be co-planar with one of the metallic layers. This can establish a broadside coupling capacitance effect between the first metallic layer and the second metallic layer. The first metallic layer and the second metallic layer can have a circular profile when viewed in plan view; alternatively, the first metallic layer and second metallic layer can have a T-shaped profile when viewed in plan view. The desired profile and the desired profile geometry can depend on the design power and operating frequency for the capacitor can depend on whether the capacitor must operate as a series capacitor or a shunt capacitor.
