Abstract :
The increase of clock frequency into the GHz range, coupled with longer length interconnects of small cross-section and low dielectric strength, can result in cross-coupling effects between on-chip interconnects. In this paper, we propose a four-reflection wave propagation based analytical model for estimation of crosstalk. An emphasis was made on the distributed nature of the RLC model used, thus underlining the effect of parasitic coupling inductance and capacitance on present and future on-chip interconnects
