Roy,
            bonding wires inside chip has some inductance ( 10nH approx 
) and analog designars try to model that for their simulations only.
because of bonding wire inductance ; supply voltage inside is different 
than the voltage at the pin . this voltage difference
depends on the supply current rate of change.
hope i could explain it properly
