Signal Integrity In Deep Submicron Cmos Chip Design, Jignesh Suresh Sonchhatra

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Advancement in CMOS technology has become a driving force in the advancement of today's IC design arena. In the past few years, considerable research has been done on the CMOS devices and circuits. Constant efforts have been made to realize smaller and smaller devices by reducing the channel length of the transistors and scaling down various other device parameters. Consequently, various problems have arisen such as interconnect delay, signal integrity and signal coupling.

The purpose of this thesis is to review and understand current problems in IC design and come up with various solutions to them. Efforts have been made …
