Abstract :
Digital and mixed circuits performance are affected and limited by the simultaneous switching power and ground noise. For accurately selecting the number of power/ground pins to overcome switching noise, it is very important to accurately estimate the worst case simultaneous switching power and ground noise. In this paper we propose a heuristic that helps to estimate this worst case
