Improvements in electrical performance of microelectronic systems can be achieved by the integration of passive elements such as capacitors, resistors and inductors. The advantage of embedded passives is their low parasitic values. In this paper, enhancement of signal-integrity and power-integrity is investigated when a high-k planar capacitor is used as a power-ground plane, with embedded high-k discrete capacitors that have low ESL and ESR values as decoupling capacitors for SSN suppression. In order to capture the effects of embedded capacitor performance, a test-structure involving many signallines referenced to a power-ground plane was simulated. Simulation results show that the high-k planar capacitor reduces coupling of noise currents through the power-ground planes and helps improve the eye-opening. Simulation results have been quantified for a case, where a fewer number of embedded discrete capacitors helps reduce SSN more significantly than surface-mounts. Transient cosimulation of the signal delivery network (SDN) and the power-delivery network (PDN) are performed using Y-parameters.
