Abstract :
This work presents a study on the substrate noise coupling between two interconnects. Two different doping profiles are simulated for various interconnect distances and different metal layers assuming a 65 nm bulk CMOS technology. A proper data analysis methodology is presented, including z and s parameters extraction and de-embedding procedure.
