Abstract
An integrated circuit including a die, a power terminal and a ground terminal all mounted onto a substrate. The power terminal including a body and a first extension projecting from the body, and the ground terminal including a body and a second extension projecting from the body. The second extension on the ground terminal being adjacent to the first extension on the power terminal to offset inductance that is generated by supplying current to the die through the power terminal.
