Measurement of Aggressor/Victim capacitive coupling impact on timing

Abstract:

A circuit for modeling capacitive coupling comprising a victim line to be tested, a first aggressor line, running alongside the victim line, creating a coupling capacitance between the victim line and the first aggressor line, and a sensor circuit coupled to the victim line, to detect effects of the first aggressor line on the victim line, the sensor circuit measuring timing effects in pseudo-real time.
