Abstract
A capacitor in an integrated circuit ('IC') has a first plurality of conductive crosses formed in a layer of the IC electrically connected to and forming a portion of a first node of the capacitor and a second plurality of conductive crosses formed in the metal layer of the IC. The conductive crosses in the second plurality of conductive crosses are electrically connected to and form a portion of a second node of the capacitor and capacitively couple to the first node.
