Creator:: Owens, Brian E.
Abstract:: Strategies for simulation and measurement of substrate noise have been analyzed using various digital and analog circuits fabricated in the TSMC 0.35um heavily doped CMOS process. The measurements validate a substrate noise coupling macromodel that has been used to obtain the simulation results. The simulations and measurements also substantiate the...

Creator:: Held, Martin A.
Abstract:: A methodology for rapid estimation of substrate noise generated by digital circuitry in mixed-signal circuits is presented. This methodology is incorporated into the Silencer! framework, and also provides for future improvements including pre-layout noise estimation. Measurements of a test chip fabricated in the TSMC o.25[mu]m heavily doped logic process validate...

Creator:: Ayers, James S.
Abstract:: An analysis of substrate noise coupling in mixed-signal circuits has been performed in the TSMC 0.25 [mu]m lightly doped and heavily doped CMOS processes. Methods to minimize noise coupling in both the chip design and board design phases are presented along with techniques for accurate circuit simulation of noise coupling....

Creator:: Birrer, Patrick
Abstract:: This thesis presents Silencer!, a fully automated, schematic-driven tool for substrate noise coupling simulation and analysis. It has been integrated in the CADENCE DFII environment and seamlessly enables substrate coupling analysis in a standard mixed-signal design flow. Silencer! aids IC designers in the analysis of substrate noise coupling at different...
