A method for preferentially shielding a signal to increase implicit
decoupling capacitance is provided. The signal is preferentially shielded
by using a probability of the signal being at a specific value to assign a
shield potential. Further, an integrated circuit that preferentially
shields a signal to increase decoupling capacitance by using a probability
of the signal being at a specific value to assign a shield potential is
provided. Further, a computer system for preferentially shielding a signal
to increase decoupling capacitance by using a probability of the signal
being at a specific value to assign a shield potential is provided.
Further, a computer readable medium having executable instructions for
preferentially shielding a signal to increase implicit decoupling
capacitance by using a probability of the signal being at a specific value
to assign a shield potential is provided. Further, a method to increase
system performance by increasing implicit decoupling capacitance is
provided.
