    • A method in accordance with the invention for modeling period jitter for testing a modeled logic circuit. Clock signals can be derived from a phase lock loop having a voltage controlled oscillator for use to evaluate timing problems within a modeled circuit. An estimation of period jitter for the modeled clock signals can be made by considering the number of periods of the voltage controlled oscillator signal which generates the clock signal occurring within a test interval. By using the relationship as an index to a table, a value of period jitter may be obtained from a table which increases longer the timing interval being considered. Instructions for carrying out the steps of correcting intervals between clock signals used in static timing tests may be stored on a computer readable medium along with a table containing the amount of period jitter as a function of the number of VCO periods occurring within a testing period. The improved accuracy in period jitter estimation improves the reliability of static testing of modeled circuits.
    • 根据本发明的用于建模用于测试建模的逻辑电路的周期抖动的方法。 时钟信号可以从具有压控振荡器的锁相环导出,用于评估建模的电路内的定时问题。 可以通过考虑产生在测试间隔内发生的时钟信号的压控振荡器信号的周期数来进行建模时钟信号的周期抖动的估计。 通过使用该关系作为表的索引,可以从考虑的时间间隔更长的表获得周期抖动的值。 用于执行校正在静态定时测试中使用的时钟信号之间的时间间隔的步骤的指令可以与包含在测试周期内出现的VCO周期数的函数的周期抖动量的表一起存储在计算机可读介质上。 周期抖动估计的改进精度提高了建模电路的静态测试的可靠性。

    • An integrated circuit designed to reduce on-chip noise coupling. In one embodiment, circuit (60) includes the following: a circuit transformer (62) capable of converting a noise sensitive input reference clock signal to an output signal having a voltage compatible with a predetermined sink voltage logic level; and a biased receiver network (64) having a PFET current mirror (74) coupled with a NFET current (72), the biased receiver transistor network designed to multiply the transformer signal to offset a mutual coupling loss of the transformer. In at least one alternative embodiment, the input reference clock signal originates at an off-chip clock generator circuit (42) and the output signal from receiver (64) is input to a PLL (44). In another alternative embodiment, the transformer is a monolithic integrated transformer. Another alternative embodiment of the present invention is a method of reducing on-chip noise coupling.
