Abstract :
Higher frequency of operation, simultaneous switching of the output drivers and the parasitic inductance present at the pin-pad-package interface results in significant switching noise (SSN). The effect of SSN on overall buffer propagation delay, taper factor and transition time is discussed. Skewing the buffer output switching reduces SSN
