Abstract :
In this work the problem of crosstalk between a metal and a polysilicon line is considered. The polysilicon line is modeled as an RC distributed transmission line, and the metal fine is considered as a single node capacitively coupled to the polysilicon line. The voltage response in the polysilicon line to a step transition in the metal line is calculated, and the influence of geometrical aspects, resistance of polysilicon, and evolution of waveform with distance from the driver´s end of the poly line are investigated
