Patent attributes
A decoupling circuit disposed between a first rail and a second rail, where a third power rail is disposed between the first and second rails. A resistor having a first electrode and a second electrode is disposed between the first and second rails. Two capacitors are disposed between the first and second rails. The resistor is connected to the third rail and the two capacitors. In this manner, the two capacitors are connected in series with respect to the resistor, and in parallel with respect to one another. A first of the two capacitors is connected to the first rail, and a second of the two capacitors is connected to the second rail. At least one of the resistor and the two capacitors is disposed at least in part beneath the third rail.
