  • Abstract
    This work presents a model for on-chip decoupling capacitors (decaps) including gate tunnelling current. The model shows that lumped models of decaps at high frequencies fail and have to be substituted by a distributed model. It also shows how the gate leakage reduces the effectiveness of such decaps for both, low and high frequencies.
