ABSTRACT:
A capacitor is disclosed having reduced impedance. In one embodiment, the capacitor includes a cathode including a first terminal and a first set of electrodes extending from the first terminal in a first layer, each electrode in the first set coupled to one corresponding electrode of a second set of electrodes in a second layer by at least one contact; and an anode including a second terminal and a third set of electrodes extending from the second terminal in the second layer, each electrode in the third set coupled to one corresponding electrode of a fourth set of electrodes in the first layer by at least one contact, wherein the first terminal and the second terminal are on a same end of the capacitor.
