Abstract
A method (of decoupling from voltage variations in a first voltage drop between first and second reference voltage rails) includes: electrically coupling one or more components to form a decoupling capacitance (decap) circuit; electrically coupling one or more components to form a filtered biasing circuit; and making an unswitched series electrical coupling of the decap circuit and the filtered biasing circuit between the first and second reference voltage rails.
