A Review on Power Supply Induced Jitter

TL;DR: The primary focus of this paper is to discuss the modeling of jitter caused by power supply noise (PSN), named power supply induced jitter (PSIJ).
Abstract: The primary focus of this paper is to discuss the modeling of jitter caused by power supply noise (PSN), named power supply induced jitter (PSIJ). A holistic discussion is presented from the basics of power delivery networks to PSN and eventually to the modeling of PSIJ. The in-depth details and a review of several methodologies available in the literature for the estimation of PSIJ are presented.

Abstract: THE DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF EXPERIMENTS. By Oscar Kempthorne. New York, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1952. 631 pp. $8.50. This book by a teacher of statistics (as well as a consultant for \"experimenters\") is a comprehensive study of the philosophical background for the statistical design of experiment. It is necessary to have some facility with algebraic notation and manipulation to be able to use the volume intelligently. The problems are presented from the theoretical point of view, without such practical examples as would be helpful for those not acquainted with mathematics. The mathematical justification for the techniques is given. As a somewhat advanced treatment of the design and analysis of experiments, this volume will be interesting and helpful for many who approach statistics theoretically as well as practically. With emphasis on the \"why,\" and with description given broadly, the author relates the subject matter to the general theory of statistics and to the general problem of experimental inference.

TL;DR: An efficient method to estimate jitter in a chain of CMOS inverters in the presence of multiple noise sources, including the power supply noise, input data noise, and the ground bounce noise is presented.
Abstract: This paper presents an efficient method to estimate jitter in a chain of CMOS inverters in the presence of multiple noise sources, including the power supply noise, input data noise, and the ground bounce noise. For this purpose, necessary noise transfer functions are derived and the recently developed EMPSIJ method is advanced to handle cascaded CMOS inverter stages. Results from the proposed method are compared with the results from a conventional EDA simulator, which demonstrate a significant speed-up using the proposed method for a comparable accuracy.

TL;DR: In this article, an analytical approach to determine jitter for a CMOS inverter in the presence of power supply noise (PSN) is presented, where the deviation in the transition edge of the output signal from its ideal timing is modeled accurately for each transition.
Abstract: This article presents an analytical approach to determine jitter for a CMOS inverter in the presence of power supply noise (PSN). The deviation in the transition edge of the output signal from its ideal timing is modeled accurately for each transition. A power series method is used to solve differential equations for different regions of transistors during output transition. The PSN has been expressed in Taylor series expression, aids to derive closed-form equation for time interval error (TIE). The obtained results from the proposed methodology closely match with electronic design automation (EDA) simulator results and verified on 40 nm Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) and 28 nm United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC) foundries, demonstrating accurate modeling of jitter.

TL;DR: In this paper, an assessment of jitter induced by power and ground (P/G) voltage variations is presented based on an extended input/output buffer information specification (IBIS)-like model for capturing the effect of P/G signal variations under simultaneous switching output (SSO) buffers.
Abstract: This paper presents an assessment of jitter induced by power and ground (P/G) voltage variations. The assessment is based on an extended input/output buffer information specification (IBIS)-like model for capturing the effect of P/G signal variations under simultaneous switching output (SSO) buffers. The requirements of nonlinear modeling for the accurate prediction is explained and illustrated. The implemented large signal equivalent-circuit model is validated under different test conditions having different P/G voltage variations for predicting the output signal distortions. The associated jitter analysis by predicting the eye diagram under the noise conditions is performed. The maximum values of the prediction error for the peak to peak values of eye jitter and eye height are 7.06% and 2.59%, respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a jitter-aware decoupling capacitors placement optimization method that uses the genetic algorithm (GA) for power source-induced jitter (PSIJ) optimization based on the GA-based tool.
Abstract: This article proposes a jitter-aware decoupling capacitors placement optimization method that uses the genetic algorithm (GA). A novel method for defining the optimization target function in regard to power delivery network (PDN) and power source-induced jitter (PSIJ) optimization based on the GA-based tool is proposed. The proposed method can provide an optimum and economic solution for the number of decoupling capacitors to use in a PDN to reach the target impedance. Then, by modifying the optimization target function with our proposed method, an optimum solution of the number of decoupling capacitors regarding the PSIJ can be obtained. The PSIJ analytical expressions are derived in conjunction with a resonant cavity model that includes the coordinates of the decoupling capacitors and the PSIJ transfer function. The GA-based optimization algorithm with the proposed target function is first applied to optimize the number of decoupling capacitors regarding the PSIJ. Finally, the measured jitters from HSPICE simulation results are used to verify our optimization method such that both the simulated results and analytically calculated results support the efficiency of our proposed optimization method.

TL;DR: In this paper, an alpha-power-law MOS model that includes the carrier velocity saturation effect, which becomes prominent in short-channel MOSFETs, is introduced and closed-form expressions for the delay, short-circuit power, and transition voltage of CMOS inverters are derived.
Abstract: An alpha -power-law MOS model that includes the carrier velocity saturation effect, which becomes prominent in short-channel MOSFETs, is introduced. The model is an extension of Shockley's square-law MOS model in the saturation region. Since the model is simple, it can be used to handle MOSFET circuits analytically and can predict the circuit behavior in the submicrometer region. Using the model, closed-form expressions for the delay, short-circuit power, and transition voltage of CMOS inverters are derived. The delay expression includes input waveform slope effects and parasitic drain/source resistance effects and can be used in simulation and/or optimization CAD tools. It is found that the CMOS inverter delay becomes less sensitive to the input waveform slope and that short-circuit dissipation increases as the carrier velocity saturation effect in short-channel MOSFETs gets more severe. >
