Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for reducing jitter due to power supply noise in an integrated circuit by drawing additional current. The additional current causes the total current to generally have a frequency higher than a resonant frequency of the integrated circuit and/or a power distribution network of the integrated circuit. A power distribution network may supply power to components of an integrated circuit, and data driver circuitry may draw first current to drive a serial data signal generated from a parallel data signal. Compensation circuitry may receive the parallel data signal and draw second current at times when the compensation circuitry determines data driver circuitry is not drawing the first current based on the parallel data signal, thereby causing a net of the first and second current to be higher than a resonant frequency range of the integrated circuit device and/or a component of the integrated circuit device.
