Abstract
Techniques for providing high-performance interconnect for integrated circuits will improve overall integrated circuit performance. These techniques include arranging, laying out, and fabricating the signal conductors (e.g.,,) so the parasitic coupling capacitances (e.g.,,) are minimized and parasitic resistance is reduced. The techniques will minimize effects of crosstalk noise between the conductors, and thus improve overall integrated circuit performance.
