HACC100S10V101: Substrate-Engineered MOS Capacitor with Binary Arrays & Irregular Die Geometry

Tailored Substrate Doping & Resistivity Control

The HACC100S10V101 offers customization of the silicon substrate electrical properties as a design parameter — not a fixed foundry default. N+ or P+ doping profiles are tailored to achieve target resistivity from 0.001 Ohm·cm (heavily doped, low series resistance for high-Q) to 1000 Ohm·cm (lightly doped, minimized junction capacitance for high SRF). The depletion region width under bias is controlled by the doping profile, enabling customer-specified C-V curve shaping: flat capacitance vs. voltage for linear applications, or controlled C-V slope for varactor-like tuning. Resistivity uniformity is ±5% wafer-level and ±2% within-die, verified by PCM (Process Control Monitor) test structures on every wafer. This level of substrate engineering is available because HACC uses a dedicated MOS capacitor foundry process — not a repurposed CMOS logic flow.

Custom Non-Standard Array Layouts & Irregular Die Geometry

Standard MOS capacitors are rectangular dies with a single capacitor plate. The HACC100S10V101 breaks this constraint: custom die aspect ratios, irregular perimeter geometries (L-shape, T-shape, polygonal, annular), multi-cavity array patterns, and rotated or offset pad placement are all supported. This enables capacitor integration into non-standard hybrid circuit footprints — fitting around existing MMICs, waveguide transitions, or thermal management structures — without requiring a separate interposer or PCB. The ability to produce irregular die geometries is enabled by the HACC sawing and singulation process, which supports customer-defined dicing street maps and non-orthogonal die outlines.

Integrated Multi-Value Binary Capacitor Arrays

A single HACC100S10V101 die can integrate multiple capacitor values in a binary-weighted array: 1:2:4:8 weighting across 4–8 independent capacitor blocks, with capacitance values from 5pF to 1000pF per block. Each block has its own top electrode pad and shares a common backside connection, enabling independent or parallel connection at the hybrid circuit level. Block-to-block isolation exceeds 40dB at 1GHz, and the shared substrate maintains matched temperature coefficient (TCC <30 ppm/°C) across all blocks. This replaces multiple discrete capacitors with a single die, reducing assembly steps, bond wire count, and hybrid circuit footprint — while providing the design flexibility to select any combination of values during wire bonding.
