Modeling digital substrate noise injection in mixed-signal IC's

Techniques are presented to compactly represent substrate noise currents injected by digital networks. Using device-level simulation, every gate in a given library is modeled by means of the signal waveform it injects into the substrate, depending on its input transition scheme. For a given sequence of input vectors, the switching activity of every node in the Boolean network is computed. Assum...

Modeling and Simulation of Substrate Noise in Mixed-Signal Circuits Applied to a Special VCO

The mixed-signal circuits with both analog and digital blocks on a single chip have wide applications in communication and RF circuits. Integrating these two blocks can cause serious problems especially in applications requiring fast digital circuits and high performance analog blocks. Fast switching in digital blocks generates a noise which can be introduced to analog circuits by the common su...
