Abstract
For the first time, compact physical models are derived for multilevel interconnect crosstalk that is induced by inter and intra-level near and far aggressors. It is shown that there is a trade-off between crosstalk and latency, and crosstalk can be prohibitively large if interconnects operate in the deep RLC region. Repeater insertion is an effective way to simultaneously lower crosstalk and increase wiring density with no significant increase in latency.
