 3M^TM Embedded Capacitor Material,an innovative laminate, lets designers and manufacturers of printed circuit boards achieve higher speeds while simplifying design tradeoffs. When used as "power" and "ground" layers in a multilayer PCB, this material effectively becomes a decoupling capacitor inside the board, reducing the need for many discrete surface-mount capacitors.
