  • Abstract
    Implementation of low energy, low latency transmission line interconnects on a network-on-chip presents the circuit designer with a variety of structural design choices. This work presents a study of the comparative effects of changing the wire geometries on the latency, energy dissipated, area, and noise properties of the transmission lines. These results will aid the engineer in the design and performance analysis of the global interconnect and foster a quantitative understanding of the wave signaling properties in the RLC regime.
