摘要
Issues related to substrate noise in system-on-chip design are described including the physical phenomena responsible for its creation, coupling transmission mechanisms and media, parameters affecting coupling strength, and its impact on mixed-signal integrated circuits. Design guidelines and best practices to minimize the generation, transmission, and reception of substrate noise are outlined, and different modeling approaches and computer simulation methods used in quantifying the noise coupling phenomena are presented. Finally, experiments that validate the modeling approaches and mitigation techniques are reviewed.
