Abstract :
This paper deals with an innovative method of EMC-compliant design. This technique helps to optimize emission level as soon as in the design phase, and provides noise-related solutions which will be evaluated and integrated into the silicon. This method allows to model the activity of thousand-gate circuits thanks to only two current generators which represent supply current consumption in the VDD and the VSS rails. This allows EMC evaluation and optimization (conducted noise) for a packaged integrated circuit within its electrical environment
