An IR-drop measurement circuit is implemented in an LSI. It can sense the voltage drop of a power node to alter a reference voltage and clock timing. A measured waveform can be obtained automatically by using the Shmoo plot functionality of an LSI tester. Measuring two different nodes along a VDD line, differential IR-drop waveforms can be successfully obtained.","PeriodicalId":209025,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 2002 Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (Cat.

A model equation of the induced gate noise is developed for MOSFETs with very short channel lengths. Comparisons with measurements verify the accuracy of the model and its validity for short and long channel transistors.","PeriodicalId":209025,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 2002 Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (Cat.
