ABSTRACT:
A decoupling capacitor for an integrated circuit and method of forming the same. The decoupling capacitor includes a p-channel device having first and second p-type doped diffusion regions, a device channel region therebetween, a device gate overlying the device channel region, and a gate insulator separating the device gate and channel region. The first and second diffusion regions are electrically connected to a positive power supply, and the device gate is electrically connected to a negative power supply. The decoupling capacitor may be formed proximate a signal driver in the integrated circuit. The decoupling capacitor may be formed without additional, expensive semiconductor fabrication steps and operates to minimize noise in the circuit.
