Abstract :
In the paper an analytical model for ground bounce noise taking into account the interdependence between switching current and noise voltage is presented. The model shows the discrepancies from general accepted assumption of independence between the two variables. Noise calculations using the independence assumption cause an overestimation of the noise levels. The results are verified through realistic simulations and for different technology nodes
