Realization of Digital Noise Emulator for Characterization of Systems Exposed to Substrate Noise
نویسندگان
چکیده
Frequency and timing of digital clocks, digital switching activities, and number of transistors in digital blocks are the key behavior-level parameters to model switching noise generated by complicated digital systems. In this paper, a Digital Noise Emulator (DNE) is implemented on a test chip to study how these parameters impact the performance of a ring-typed-VCO-based PLL. In addition, the proposed DNE can be used for noise cancellation to improve PLL performance in the presence of deterministic noise.

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...

Substrate noise generated by digital circuits on mixed-signal ICs can disturb the sensitiveanalog/RF circuits, such as Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), sharing the same substrate. This paperinvestigates the adverse impact of the substrate noise on a high frequency cascode LNA laid out on alightly doped substrate. By studying the major noise coupling mechanisms, a new and efficientmodeling method is p...

Background and Purpose: Although the evolution of industrial systems toward digital technologies decreased the exposure to high levels of noise, it has created some problems encountered with low level and provoking noise (low frequency noise). In the present work, the mental performance of students exposed to low frequency and reference noises at low and high levels (45 & 65 dB) were studied....
متن کاملEnhancement of Noise Performance in Digital Receivers by Over Sampling the Received Signal
In wireless channel the noise has a zero mean. This channel property can be used in the enhancement of the noise performance in the digital receivers by oversampling the received signal and calculating the decision variable based on the time average of more than one sample of the received signal. The averaging process will reduce the effect of the noise in the decision variable that will approa...
متن کاملNoise pollution and its spatial distribution in urban environments (case study: Yazd city, Iran)
This study focuses on identifying source and frequency of noise pollution in Yazd, Iran. For data collection, we used two approaches: First we selected 55 monitoring stations for 122 km grid network; the distance between two stations was 2 km. Then, at the same time, we measured the sound pressure level (SPL) at main roads; the distance between two monitoring stations in this case was 1 km. Aft...
