Crosstalk in VLSI: Glitch Noise, Delta Delay, Timing Windows and Fixes
How crosstalk works in VLSI physical design: coupling capacitance between aggressor and victim nets, rise/fall glitches and overshoot/undershoot, delta delay and its effect on setup and hold, timing windows in SI-aware STA, and practical fixes, with illustrative examples, a debugging flowchart and interview Q&As.
