Abstract :
An analytical model for switching noise with an on-chip bypass capacitor is presented. To incorporate various design parameters into the model, a differential equation is formulated and solved by Laplace transforms. Based on the model, optimum on-chip capacitor size is determined and compared with HSPICE simulation results. In the simulation, a realistic 0.6 μm BSIM device model at best process conditions is used and good correlation is demonstrated
