We highlight several fundamental challenges to designing highperformance integrated circuits in nanometer-scale technologies (i.e. drawn feature sizes < 100 nm). Dynamic power ...
— Dynamic power noises may not only degrade the circuit performance but also reduce the noise margin which may result in the functional errors in integrated circuit. Decoupling c...
