Abstract

An integrated circuit has a lateral flux capacitor assembly that includes a first metal layer having a capacitive portion with first and second lateral sides and first and second capacitive fingers, a first dummy metal lines portion positioned adjacent the first lateral side of the capacitive portion and a second dummy metal lines portion positioned adjacent the second lateral side of the capacitive portion. The first set of capacitive fingers is electrically connected to the first dummy metal lines portion and the second set of capacitive fingers is electrically connected to the second dummy metal lines portion. A method of making an integrated circuit assembly with a lateral flux capacitor includes electrically connecting a first plurality of capacitive fingers in a first metal layer to a first dummy metal lines portion of the first metal layer.
