Off-chip Decoupling Capacitor Allocation for Chip Package Co-Design
Off-chip decoupling capacitor (decap) allocation is a demanding task during package and chip codesign. Existing approaches can not handle large numbers of I/O counts and large num...

A Novel Active Decoupling Capacitor Design in 90nm CMOS
—On-chip decoupling capacitors (decaps) are generally used to reduce power supply noise. Passive decap designs are reaching their limits in 90nm CMOS technology due to higher ope...

Automatic package and board decoupling capacitor placement using genetic algorithms and M-FDM
In the design of complex power distribution networks (PDN) with multiple power islands, it is required that the PDN represents a low impedance as seen by the digital modules. This...

Active decap design considerations for optimal supply noise reduction
Active decoupling capacitors (decaps) are more effective than passive decaps at reducing local IR-drop problems in the power distribution network. In the basic active decap, two p...

Transition-aware decoupling-capacitor allocation in power noise reduction
— Dynamic power noises may not only degrade the circuit performance but also reduce the noise margin which may result in the functional errors in integrated circuit. Decoupling c...
