The anti-resonance peaks can be quenched/flattened with ESR. You typically need many different values of capacitance to flatten the resonant peak crossing from PCB decoupling to on-die/on-package decoupling, to meet the target impedance.
So how do we know in advance whether adding several caps in parallel is going to be beneficial or not ? Dave Jones of the EEVBlog demonstrates what happens in one of his videos "Bypass capacitors", and indeed it's not clear when the anti-resonance peaks are going to nullify any benefit.
InXLsisDeo, The guess and check method lol? Just model it with several different combinations and test each. (because it's as inexpensive, easy, and non-time-consuming to implement that in an advanced circuit, as it is to say it, and in industry every company would totally go for it.) (
That via placement example makes an unspecified assumption about the traces between the chip and the bypass cap. Since it is unstated which layout this advice applies to, it's pretty uninformative. One style would put the local power traces in the top layer, using vias only to feed the bypass from the bulk rail. Another style would feed the chip directly from power and ground planes, with a nearby bypass connected separately to the planes, thus putting up to 4 vias in the local bypass circuit. And then their are the compromise styles between those extremes.
Great work thank you so much.

@@binaryglitch64 Why could we modeling and simulation that first?
So nice thanks sir
What is that back ground noise
that antiresonance peak problem scares me a lot since I don't have an impedance analyzer.
Awesome
Great vid, except lots of background noise.
He must have forgotten to decouple
Sounds like a server room to me.
u r awesome :D
