Abstract

A method and verification of estimating crosstalk noise in coupled RLC interconnects with distributed line in nanometer integrated circuits is provided. In this invention, nanometer VLSI interconnects are modeled as distributed RLC coupled trees. The efficiency and the accuracy of moment computation of distributed lines can be shown that outperform those of lumped ones. The inductive crosstalk noise waveform can be accurately estimated in an efficient manner using the linear time moment computation technique in conjunction with the projection-based order reduction method. Recursive formulas of moment computations for coupled RC trees are derived with considering both self inductances and mutual inductances. Also, analytical formulas of voltage moments at each node will be derived explicitly. These formulas can be efficiently implemented for crosstalk estimations.
