Abstract:Abstract-As technology scales into the deep submicron regime, noise immunity is becoming a metric of comparable importance to area, timing, and power for the analysis and design of very large scale integrated (VLSI) systems. A metric for noise immunity is defined, and a static noise analysis methodology based on this noise-stability metric is introduced to demonstrate how noise can be analyzed systematically on a full-chip basis using simulationbased transistor-level analysis. We then describe Harmony, a two-l… Show more
