Review of on-chip wiring guidelines with respect to the inaccuracies of an RC coupling evaluation for known net topologies is discussed in terms of tool requirements for full-chip noise evaluation which include inductive coupling effects. The extraction and simulation approach is described in terms of algorithms and procedures used to account for the frequency dependent RLC effects in a manner that allow a full chip noise evaluation. Results are presented which compare noise amplitude differences between RC and R(f)L(f)C evaluations for the wiring data of an S/390 microprocessor as well as pertinent statistics such as run times and memory usage.","PeriodicalId":101717,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 2001 Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (Cat.

Key feature of the chip is a smart acoustic echo cancellation and suppression algorithm, which allows comfortable full-duplex speakerphone conversations. Different digital interfaces allow connection to a variety of devices, including a 12 Mb/s USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface for PC host communication. The basic application of the INCA is in terminal equipment, where microphone, loudspeaker, headset and handset can be connected directly to the analog front end. Additionally the INCA provides a mechanism to control other U/sub PN/ terminals. This mode allows one to cascade U/sub PN/ telephones via its IOM-2 (ISDN Oriented Modular) interface.
