Near zero SSN power delivery networks using Constant Voltage Power Transmission Lines

To control SSN in the power delivery network, providing power through transmission line instead of voltage plane can lead to better performance. Several issues arise when the power transmission line is used in a real environment. Amongst them, a practical scheme presented in this paper focuses on supplying a stable voltage to the common power supply node of multiple I/Os switching simultaneously. The simulation results show that the newly suggested scheme generates power supply noise-free eye opening and consumes almost the same amount of power as the conventional power plane scheme.
