Abstract :
As the chip dimensions increase with chip complexity, interconnects tend to get longer. With the longer on-chip interconnects coupled with a decrease in wire width and wire separation, inductive coupling effects have become non-negligible. Analytical modelling expressions for the estimation of the noise peak voltage of the victim line under worst-case crosstalk noise effect are presented.
