The placement of on-die decoupling capacitors (decap) between the power and ground supply grids has become a common practice in high performance processor designs. In this paper, ...
—On-die capacitances interact with the inductance and resistance of the power distribution network to supply electrical charge. A distributed model is generally required to analy...

With increase of clock frequency, on-chip wire inductance starts to play an important role in power/ground distribution analysis, although it has not been considered so far. We pe...
This paper proposes Noise-Direct, a design methodology for power integrity aware floorplanning, using microarchitectural feedback to guide module placement. Stringent power constr...
