摘要： Miniature defibrillators and cardioverters detect abnormal heart rhythms and automatically apply electrical therapy to restore normal heart function. Critical components in these devices are aluminum electrolytic capacitors, which store and deliver one or more life-saving bursts of electric charge to a heart of a patient. This type of capacitor requires regular “reform” to preserve its charging efficiency over time. Because reform expends valuable battery life, manufacturers developed wet-tantalum capacitors, which are generally understood not to require reform. Yet, the present inventors discovered through extensive study that wet-tantalum capacitors exhibit progressively worse charging efficiency over time. Accordingly, to address this problem, the inventors devised unique reform techniques for wet-tantalum capacitors. One exemplary technique entails charging wet-tantalum capacitors to a voltage equal to about 90% of their rated voltage and maintaining this voltage for about five minutes before discharging them.

摘要： An integrated circuit (IC) capacitor offers reduced sensitivity to parasitic capacitance, reduced-size, and increased noise immunity, such as for use in digital-to-analog converters (DACs), analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), switched-capacitor filters, and other IC circuits. The capacitor includes a first polysilicon layer, a superjacent second polysilicon layer separated from the first polysilicon layer by an insulator, and an overlying metal layer separated from the second polysilicon layer by an insulator. The metal layer provides a shield that is connected to a known voltage, or to the first polysilicon layer. When connected to the first polysilicon layer, the overlying metal layer also provides additional parallel capacitance, thereby reducing the integrated circuit area of the capacitor. In one example, the overlying metal layer is a second metal layer that is also used, together with a first metal layer, for interconnecting IC components.
