Impact of on-chip interconnect frequency-dependent R(f)L(f) on digital and RF design.

Impact of on-chip interconnect frequency-dependent R(f)L(f) on digital and RF design.

On-chip global interconnect exhibits clear frequency dependence in both resistance (R) and inductance ( L). In this paper, its impact on modern digital and radio frequency (RF) circuit design is examined. First, a physical and compact ladder circuit model is developed to capture this behavior, which...
