Minimization of crosstalk noise, delay and power using a modified bus invert technique

Previously reported bus encoding approaches reduce crosstalk delay but they ignore the effects of inductive coupling between the bus lines, i.e. crosstalk noise. Aiming to solve this issue, this paper presents a modified bus-invert technique which minimizes crosstalk noise, as well as delay and power, at the expense of a small area overhead.
