Abstract
A fringe capacitor comprises a plurality of unidirectional metal layers, wherein an orientation of a preferred direction of each of the unidirectional metal layers is in a same direction. First fingers of the fringe capacitor are formed in a first layer of the unidirectional metal layers, the first fingers being interdigitated and having a direction parallel to the orientation of the preferred direction. Second fingers of the fringe capacitor are formed in a second layer of the unidirectional metal layers, the second fingers being interdigitated and having a direction parallel to the orientation of the preferred direction, the first layer and the second layer separated by at least a layer of not having the orientation of the preferred direction and not having fingers of the fringe capacitor.
