| Research Abstract |
Demands on high performance mixed-signal integrated circuits are increasing because of the advancing of multimedia technologies. Periodical behavior of digital circuits produces what so called digital substrate noise. This noise will deteriorate analog circuit performance and is a big problem to be solved.
A passive guard ring has been commonly used to reduce the substrate fluctuation. However, it only suppresses the noise coupled through a substrate surface and has quite small effect on noise transfered through the deep portion of a substrate. This project proposes an active shield circuit to solve digital substrate noise problem. The proposed active shield circuit will generate an inverting signal to the digital noise and cancel out it. To improve cancellation performance layout of the active shield circuit, analog circuits and digital circuits is considered, and an automatic control technique is proposed. The validity of the proposed techniques is confirmed through experiments and simulations.
