Abstract
In deep submicron technologies, coupling capacitance significantly dominates the total parasitic capacitance. This causes crosstalk noise to be induced on quiescent signals which could lead to catastrophic failures. A methodology is provided that is a practical approach to full-chip crosstalk noise verification. A grouping based method is described for identification of potential victims and associated aggressors, using either timing information or functional information. Potential victim signal lines are selected and pruned based on total coupling capacitance to various signal groups.

A simple approach to modeling cross-talk in integrated circuits

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple engineering approach for rapid simulation of cross-talk in mixed-mode IC's using SPICE is presented, which shows that while an SOI-based process provides high isolation from crosstalk at low operating frequencies, its benefit is lost at high frequencies.
