Abstract-- Scaling the minimum feature size of VLSI circuits to sub-quarter micron and its clock frequency to 2GHz has caused crosstalk noise to become a serious problem, that degr...
In recent years, due to rapid advances in VLSI manufacturing technology capable of packing more and more devices and wires on a chip, crosstalk has emerged as a serious problem af...
— The effects of parameter variations and crosstalk noise on the clock signal propagating along an H-tree clock distribution network are investigated in this paper. In particular...
PSP and the backward propagation of variance (BPV) method are used to characterize the statistical variations of metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs). BPV s...
