Noise Coupling in Integrated Circuits: A Practical Approach to Analysis, Modeling, and Suppression book, and ChipQuake Power Integrity Explorer Learning Edition Simulation Software CD-ROM

This book provides a practical approach to the analysis of noise coupling and power integrity mechanisms, implementation of suppression techniques, and simulation using modeling and extraction tools. The overall goal is to improve the technical skills of engineers and technicians, enabling them to efficiently address noise coupling and power integrity problems at chip, package, and PCB levels.

ChipQuake(TM) Learning Edition Simulation Software Can Be Used To:

Simulate the power integrity on the chip, package, and printed circuit board (PCB) Co-design

Explore decoupling capacitor types, values, and placement locations on the chip, package, and PCB.

Analyze the noise coupling effects on the analog regions of mixed-signal integrated circuits.

Examine various floor-plan options, pin assignments, power grid sizes, and guard ring isolations.

Analyze the effects of various packaging options on noise coupling.

ChipQuake(TM) generates frequency sweep characteristics of power distribution impedance and power supply noise on the chip, package, and PCB, and computes two- and three-dimensional color coded maps of the on-chip substrate and power supply noise. Mouse move probing displays the noise voltage function of X-Y coordinates. Operating systems: Windows 7, Vista, XP.
