Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Structures and methods of forming moisture barrier capacitor on a semiconductor component are disclosed. The capacitor is located on the periphery of a semiconductor chip and includes an inner plate electrically connected to a voltage node, an outer plate with fins for electrically connecting to a different voltage node.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of forming a moisture barrier capacitor, the method comprising: forming an outer plate and an inner plate of the moisture barrier capacitor, the capacitor disposed on a periphery of a chip edge; forming electrical connections to the outer plate of the capacitor to an active circuitry through a upper layer not porous to moisture, wherein the outer plate is electrically connected by fins, wherein at least a portion of the fins are disposed above the…
