چکیده

This paper examines several contributors to eye diagram degradation in high-speed digital systems. The eye diagrams are generated through a combination of full wave simulation and circuit analysis. The interconnect part of the analyzed structure is first characterized in terms of S parameters obtained with the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. The resulting S parameters are used together with the convolution approach to perform time domain simulation of the complete circuit in SPICE.

Comparisons of Improvements on Time-doma- in Transmission Waveform and Eye Diagram for Flat Spiral Delay Line between Two Types Guard Traces in High-speed Digital Circuits

This paper investigates the use of the guard traces to improve the Time-Domain Transmission (TDT) waveform and eye diagram for a flat spiral delay line. Two types of guard trace are adopted to implement and analysis in microstrip line and stripline structures. One is Two Grounded Vias type Guard Trace (TGVGT) and the other is Open-Stub type Guard Trace (OSGT). The timedomain analysis results by...

A conformal dispersive finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is developed for the study of one-dimensional (1-D) plasmonic waveguides formed by an array of periodic infinite-long silver cylinders at optical frequencies. The curved surfaces of circular and elliptical inclusions are modelled in orthogonal FDTD grid using effective permittivities (EPs) and the material frequency dispersion i...

Reliability of Nano-Scaled Logic Gates Based on Binary Decision Diagrams

Binary decision diagrams (BDDs) have been useful for synthesis and verification of digital circuits. This paper, for the first time, looks into the reliability of a few logic gates implemented using BDDs. The gates were designed using an advanced CMOS technology node and subject to threshold-voltage variations. The results of the Monte Carlo Spice simulations show that BDD-based gates are signi...
