E-Cap Silicon Capacitors: Revolutionizing High-Frequency Applications

Empower Semiconductor’s E-Cap technology represents a significant advancement in capacitor design, offering a compact, flexible, and high-performance solution for various demanding applications. By integrating multiple discrete capacitances into a single, integrated solid-state device, E-Cap provides unparalleled density, with capacitance values ranging from 75pF to 5µF at 2V.

One of the primary benefits of E-Cap is its superior high-frequency decoupling capabilities. With an equivalent series inductance (ESL) as low as 15pH, compared to the 200pH of traditional multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), E-Cap ensures lower impedance at high frequencies. This results in a more efficient power delivery network, crucial for applications requiring high-speed data processing and minimal signal degradation.

E-Cap’s ultra-low profile, with package heights down to just 50µm, makes it ideal for in-package and under-package SoC and PCB filtering and bypass applications. The technology also offers superior stability, eliminating the need for AC or DC bias de-rating and reducing the nominal capacitance required to guarantee effective capacitance. This means designers can achieve their performance goals without over-specifying capacitance requirements, which simplifies system design and reduces component count.

Empower’s E-Cap technology is versatile and customizable, catering to a wide range of applications from mobile and wearables to data center servers and IoT devices. The compact form factor and improved electrical performance make E-Cap perfectly suited for high-frequency, high-speed data-intensive systems where power and signal integrity are critical.

Whether you’re looking to enhance your system’s performance or reduce component count, Empower’s E-Cap silicon capacitors offer a reliable and efficient solution. With their proven reliability and customizable form factors, E-Cap is poised to revolutionize the way you approach capacitor design in your next project.
