In this paper, we propose the on-chip design techniques for controlling Power Supply Noise (PSN) effects on Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) with chip-Printed Circuit Board (PCB) hierarchical structure interconnected by bonding wires. There are two steps for explaining the proposed design technique. First, we explain what the PSN coupling path is on ADC. The PSN will couple from noise source to noise victim via power distribution network and circuit path. Second, we propose how we can reduce the noise coupling effects. The comparator is essential circuit to ADC and most sensitive circuit to PSN in ADC. Therefore, it is important to reduce the noise coupling effects on comparator for designing ADC which is non-sensitive to PSN. The comparator has two input nodes, and the differential voltage between two input nodes affect to ADC output. The impedance imbalance between two comparator inputs is the reason why the comparator is sensitive to PSN. So, the technique which is for balancing two input impedance is important to reduce PSN effects. We consider chip-PCB components to estimate two input impedance, because the two input impedances are affected by chip-PCB hierarchical structure. If we control the impedance of each input, we can design the ADC which is nonsensitive to PSN at the targeted frequency. We demonstrate the proposed technique based on simulation by PSN whose frequency swept from 1MHz to 3GHz.

The integrated crosstalk noise (ICN) has been proposed in the IEEE 802.3ba standard to measure the crosstalk in the high-speed channel and accepted as a replacement of the ICR (Insertion Crosstalk Ratio) for channel noise estimation. As the PHY options of NRZ, PAM-4 and/or Duobinary are actively explored for higher data rate, a generalized ICN model will be needed for characterizing the channel SI performance. This paper presents the analysis of the integrated crosstalk noise (ICN) model for 10 Gb/s NRZ coding based system and generalizes the ICN model for 25 Gb/s and beyond system adopting the NRZ, PAM-4 or Duobinary coding scheme.

This article describes a method to solve near-field coupling based on Hu's formulation which is applied to a complex navy ship electromagnetic environment where the transmit antenna, receive antenna and obstacles may all be located in the near-field. The method was developed for use with boundary value based computational electromagnetic software packages to overcome their inability of calculating received power when using an aperture illumination antenna model.

The paper deals with the analysis based on the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) of stationary regimes in three-phase power systems with significant distortions. Firstly one presents the conclusion of preliminary evaluations used to select the most appropriate analysis technique: RMS values were evaluated using different DWT-based methods, analysis of errors, of memory consumptions and respectively of runtimes was done. Afterward data gathered from the excitation of the main generator from a power plant were submitted to a complex analysis. Three DWT-based methods were selected for comparative studies: one relies on the function dwt, provided by Matlab, the other two rely on original functions implementing the so-called “D4 Wavelet Transform” (“dwm” assumes that the analysed signal is periodic, whilst “dwi” performs interpolations, being applicable to non-periodic signals as well). The superiority of dwm and dwi is sustained by smaller errors (results yielded by the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) were used as reference) and significantly smaller requirements for computational resources (memory and runtime).

As CMOS LSIs operate at higher clock frequency and at lower supply voltage, power integrity is becoming a critical issue to maintain digital electronic systems more stable. Power supply fluctuation excited by core circuits or I/O circuits induces logic instability and electromagnetic radiation. Therefore, total impedance of power distribution network (PDN) must be taking into consideration in the chip-package-board co-design. Especially, anti-resonance peaks in the PDN due to the parallel combination of on-chip capacitance and package inductance induces the unwanted power supply fluctuation, and results in the degradation of signal integrity and electromagnetic interference (EMI). In this paper, effects of critical damping condition for the total PDN impedance on power supply noise has been studied by designing different on-chip PDN properties. The measured power supply noises for the four test chips successfully showed typical characteristics of 3 different regions. The critical damping condition against the anti-resonance peak has been proved to be effective to suppress the power supply noise on a chip.

This paper presents the feasibility of fault analysis using intentional electromagnetic interference (IEMI). Fault analysis (FA) is a kind of implementation attack that intentionally extracts a secret key embedded in a secure device such as a smart card. An attacker injects a computational fault during the cryptographic calculation and he can extract a secret key. Recently, Hayashi et al. showed that temporal faults could be remotely injected during the cryptographic calculation using IEMI. They showed a case study in which an Advanced Standard Encryption (AES) secret key could be extracted through fault analysis. However, the characteristics of faults that can be induced by IEMI were not described. And, a threat of various FAs was not clear. In this paper, we examine in detail how the IEMI fault injection affects the fault occurrence of intermediate states in a cryptographic module and investigate the distribution of the IEMI generated faults. Furthermore, we classify previous FAs with respect to an attack model such as the type of faults needed to achieve a successful attack, and discuss the feasibility of FAs using IEMI based on the experimental results.

This paper presents analytical formulas to extract an equivalent circuit model for coupled through silicon via (TSV) structures in a 3D integrated circuit. We make use of a multiconductor transmission line approach to model coupled TSV structures. TSVs are embedded in a lossy silicon medium, hence they behave as metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) transmission lines. The models we present can accurately capture the transition between slow-wave and dielectric quasi-TEM modes, which are characteristic for MIS transmission lines, as well as the metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) varactor capacitance. The results are validated against 2D quasi-static simulations and 3D full-wave electromagnetic simulations. The derived equivalent circuit models can easily be applied in circuit simulators to analyze crosstalk behavior of TSVs in a 3D integrated system.

This paper discussed the package selection and BGA signal pin assignment consideration for high-end ASIC design with over 400 SerDes (Serializer Deserializer) pairs for >;10Gbps backplane interface. The ASIC package is using advanced high-performance organic build-up (BU) materials like GX13, GZ41 and thinner core in the stack-up to help reduce the package loss and improve the signal transmission on the highspeed SerDes links. For return loss and insertion loss studies, the main objectives are to investigate the core thickness, BU material properties, and routing configurations impact on the differential signalling. The design suggestions are then made at each area for performance and cost optimization. For crosstalk studies, various pin-out patterns for transmit to transmit or receive to receive signals, and transmit to receive signals, have been designed and studied to investigate signal coupling and PCB escape routing requirements. Both frequency and time domain simulations are performed to compare the signal isolation performance. The most optimized pin-out is then selected to achieve the overall required system performance. Lastly, various package substrate samples with different BU materials, core thicknesses and crosstalk structures are manufactured to validate package design performance using probe station technique.

EMC test programs are often very lengthy and expensive. It is very important to address a number of critical EMC test issues as early in the program as possible to ensure complete and accurate planning, budgeting and design criteria. This paper presents and discusses a number of typical critical EMC test issues needing early resolution in programs. Suggestions are also provided to help control the potential impact of these issues.

Bulk ferrite chokes are widely used to reduce common-mode (CM) currents on system harnesses. The impact of the ferrite on the CM currents depends on a variety of factors and is difficult to predict. A simple closed-form analytical model of the CM impedance of the ferrite that allows efficient evaluation of the impact of the ferrite is considered. In order to apply this model to a real active power system with cable harnesses, information about the system's CM loop impedance is measured using the minimally-invasive dual current clamp method. The predicted impact of the ferrite on the CM loop impedance of the system and the CM currents on the harness showed reasonable agreement with measurements in both a simple passive test setup and in a real active system.
