Hi all, Because of the display problem, my topo picture may not be shown = correctly. But I know that all is familiar with the IBIS buffer models. Welcome experts who know the mechanism of the buffer structure and SSN = to discuss it.

Hi all, As we know, SSN arises from PDN noise and crosstalk. Here I just talk = about the effect of PDN noise.=20 In some SSN simulation, I find that the PDN in the driver side plays the dominant effect on SSN and the PDN in the receiver side plays little = effect. My explanation is as follows. The following picture is a simple topology consisting of IBIS buffer = models. We know that large current will be pulled up or pulled down when a large number of IOs switch simultaneous and generate large PDN noise which aggresses quiet pin or stable level through the path of PDN. However, the level changes only by C_comp charging or discharging in the input buffer (clamp diodes also play a little effect on the waveform) instead of pulling up current or pull-down from PDN like the output = buffer. Maybe there are also some noise in the node of nd_pc and nd_pc in the receiver, but the noise hardly aggress signals in the receiver.=20 Therefore the performance of the PDN in the receiver has little effect = on the SSN. And I just learn from books that SSO(simultaneous switching output noise = ) is SSN and haven't seen the knowledge about the SSN in the receiver yet. Is there any problem in my explanation? Can I make a conclusion that the performance of the PDN in the receiver has little effect on the SSN? Appreciate any idea on it. output buffer input buffer --- ------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------- | nd_pu nd_pc | | nd_pc | | ___|___ ___|___ | | ___|___ | | ---|__PU__| |__PC__| C_comp | ____ __________ ____ | C_comp |__PC__| | | ____| |________|_____________|_| pkg |___{ = Tline }_| pkg |__|______________| | | nd_in | ___| __ ___|___ __|__ | |____| {_________} |____| | __|__ ___|___ |=20 | ---|__PD__| |__GC__| ____ | | ____ |__GC__| | | | | _|_ | | = _|_ | | | nd_pu nd_gc =3D | | =3D nd_gc | ------ ---------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------- =20 Best Regards, Zhengrong =20 HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO.,LTD. huawei_logo=20 Address: Huawei Industrial Base Bantian Longgang Shenzhen 518129, P.R.China www.huawei.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------= --- --------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail and its attachments contain confidential information from HUAWEI, which is intended only for the person or entity whose address is listed above.
