ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for improving ON/OFF switching in high speed digital circuitry is disclosed. The present invention includes apparatus for altering the impedance or capacitive loading of the interconnect. Some embodiments reduce back reflections by raising the impedance of the interconnect to be closer to that of the contact, or raising the capacitive loading, and others improve the culprit-victim problem by filtering out the highest frequency components of the pulse on the culprit interconnect. For the back reflection problem, the apparatus for altering can be formed of elements for altering the capacitance or, alternatively the resistance, of the interconnect. For the culprit-victim problem, the apparatus for altering includes elements which alter the effective capacitance or resistance of the culprit interconnect.
