In this work, the ground bounce noise has been modeled and analyzed in frequency domain, for both synchronous and GALS (globally asynchronous, locally synchronous) systems. The analysis has been performed analytically, and validated by numerical simulations in MATLAB. Package parasitics and power distribution network have been coarsely modeled by a simple lumped model, while switching currents have been modeled as periodic triangular pulses. Dominant components of spectrum are determined, and the impact of their distribution on the requirements for substrate modeling has been discussed. It has been concluded that resistive substrate approximation introduces large errors for systems with small decoupling capacitances, while it can be satisfactory for systems with large decoupling capacitances.

“…Since different modules use unrelated clock frequencies, such a system can be called a globally asynchronous locally synchronous (GALS) system [1]. Another benefit of the GALS system is the electromagnetic inference (EMI) can be reduced since their locally synchronous modules operate either at different frequencies or at different phases [3,4]. Hence, the switching activities inside a GALS system can be spread over time.…”

In this paper, we propose a new method for measuring metastability in the mutual exclusion element (MUTEX) implemented on a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). Our method uses fine-grained phase shifts of a digital clock manager to trigger Flip-Flops to generate concurrent inputs for a MUTEX. By dynamically adjusting the phase shift between two clock signals, we can force the MUTEX into a metastable state. The benefit of our approach is that it is easier to force the MUTEX become metastable compared to the conventional approach using two un-correlated signals. The experiments have been performed on a Xilinx Spartan-6 (XC6SLX9-4TQG144C).
