A capacitive/resistive device provides both resistive and capacitive functions. The capacitive/resistive device may be embedded within a layer of a printed wiring board. Embedding the capacitive/resistive device conserves board surface real estate, and reduces the number of solder connections, thereby increasing reliability.
