A capacitance circuit assembly mounted on a semiconductor chip, and methods for forming the same, are provided. A plurality of divergent capacitors is provided in a parallel circuit connection between first and second ports, the plurality providing at least one Metal Oxide Silicon Capacitor and at least one Vertical Native Capacitor or Metal-Insulator-Metal Capacitor. An assembly has a vertical orientation, a Metal Oxide Silicon capacitor located at the bottom and defining a footprint, with a middle Vertical Native Capacitor having a plurality of horizontal metal layers, including a plurality of parallel positive plates alternating with a plurality of parallel negative plates. In another aspect, vertically asymmetric orientations provide a reduced total parasitic capacitance.
A composite capacitive circuit assembly, comprising:
