A few days ago there was some discussion about parasitic capacitance of SMD resistors.
From the dimensions of a 1MOhm 1206 resistor, assuming all the field is in the alumin dielectric, and pretending it is otherwise a simple flat-plate capacitor, I found it should be in the 35fF ballpark.
Measuring one using my HP8753D network analyzer, I got
50fF. Not too bad an agreement for a five-minute lash-up.That's a factor of 6 below John's results. You were right, Win, 300fF was way too high.
