An Improved Active Decoupling Capacitor for “Hot-Spot” Supply Noise Reduction in ASIC Designs
On-chip decoupling capacitors (decaps) are widely used to reduce power supply noise by placing them at the appropriate locations on the chip between blocks. While passive decaps can provide a certain degree of protection against IR drop, if a problem is found after the physical design is completed, it is difficult to implement a quick fix to the problem. In this paper, we investigate the use of...
متن کاملOptimal decoupling capacitor sizing and placement for standard-cell layout designs
With technology scaling, the trend for high performance integrated circuits is towards ever higher operating frequency, lower power supply voltages and higher power dissipation. This causes a dramatic increase in the currents being delivered through the on-chip power grid and is recognized in the 2001 International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors as one of the difficult challenges. The ad...
متن کاملEffective Decoupling Radius of Decoupling Capacitor*
Decoupling capacitors on packages and printed circuits boards are often essential to reduce voltage fluctuations and maintain power and signal integrity. This paper presents a measure for the evaluation of effectiveness of decoupling capacitors placed on package or board structures.
متن کاملQuantifying Decoupling Capacitor Location
Decoupling capacitor location in DC power bus design is a critical design choice for which proven guidelines are not well established. The mutual inductance between two closely spaced vias can have a great impact on the coupling between an IC and a decoupling capacitor. This coupling is a function of the spacing between the IC and capacitor, and spacing between power and ground layers. The impa...
متن کاملStub vs. Capacitor for Power Supply Noise Reduction
This paper compares a stub and a decoupling capacitor for power supply noise reduction. A quarter-length stub attached to the power supply line of an LSI chip works as a band-eliminate filter, and suppresses the power supply bounce of the designed frequency. The conditions where the stub is more effective than the same-area decoupling capacitor are clarified. The stub will work more efficiently...
