Time domain modeling of crosstalk voltage on MWCNT interconnects

This paper concentrates on the time domain modeling of MWCNT interconnect crosstalk voltage for both aggressor and quiet victim lines. The methodology exploits a Compact RC model for MWCNT interconnects to model the time domain crosstalk. This time domain modeling of MWCNT interconnects for both the victim and aggressor lines is presented for the first time. We used this mode to analyze the crosstalk effect in two coupled MWCNTs interconnects. Simulations are done for the global level interconnects in 14nm and 22nm technology nodes. The results show a good conformance with the simulation results of colossal distributed model, as the reference, with an average error being less than 1.3% for maximum induced voltage of quiet victim line for all technology nodes and lengths. The proposed model can efficiently be used to predict the crosstalk effect in the future MWCNT-based circuits.
