A Novel Active Decoupling Capacitor Design in 90nm CMOS
—On-chip decoupling capacitors (decaps) are generally used to reduce power supply noise. Passive decap designs are reaching their limits in 90nm CMOS technology due to higher ope...

Active decap design considerations for optimal supply noise reduction
Active decoupling capacitors (decaps) are more effective than passive decaps at reducing local IR-drop problems in the power distribution network. In the basic active decap, two p...
