Near-end crosstalk is one of the three important sources of line-to-line crosstalk. It arises in both stripline and microstrip interconnects. The most important way of controlling it is by moving the ...

All 50Ω symmetric striplines in FR4 have the same aspect ratio. Using a 2D field solver, we can explore what this ratio is for a specific value of Dk and conductor thickness. Spoiler summary: The ...

BEOL metal line RC delay has become a dominant factor that limits chip performance at advanced nodes [1]. Smaller metal line pitches require a narrower line CD and line to line spacing, which ...

Researchers at MIT say they have made a breakthrough with light technology that eventually could help chip makers create integrated circuits with finer line widths than are now possible. The ...
