Abstract
A packaged multichip device includes a first IC die with an isolation capacitor utilizing a top metal layer as its top plate and a lower metal layer as its bottom plate. A second IC die has a second isolation capacitor utilizing its top metal layer as its top plate and a lower metal layer as its bottom plate. A first bondwire end is coupled to one top plate and a second bondwire end is coupled to the other top plate. The second bondwire end includes a stitch bond including a wire approach angle not normal to the top plate it is bonded to and is placed so that the stitch bond's center is positioned at least 5% further from an edge of this top plate on a bondwire crossover side compared to a distance of the stitch bond's center from the side opposite the bondwire crossover side.
