Embedded Capacitor Material Achieves RoHS Compliance

"3M Electronics' embedded capacitor material, an advanced laminate, is now RoHS-compliant. The material can be made with a dielectric thickness down to 8 µm and a capacitance density of over 10 nF per sq. in. for embedding planar capacitance in circuit boards. When used as "power" and "ground" layers in a multi-layer PCB, it becomes an internal shared decoupling capacitor, eliminating many discrete surface mount capacitors and vias." Source: smt.pennnet.com
