Abstract

A digital isolator and an isolation capacitor structure are disclosed. The isolation capacitor structure includes a lower electrode plate and an upper electrode plate. The upper electrode plate is disposed above the lower electrode plate, and the peripheral edge region of the upper electrode plate has a stepped structure. The distance between the upper electrode plate and the lower electrode plate in the peripheral edge region of the upper electrode plate is greater than the distance between the central region of the upper electrode plate and the lower electrode plate.
