Adjacent Capacitance Formula Elements

Variables
Adjacent Capacitance
Adjacent capacitance is the capacitance at adjacent point.
Symbol: Cadj
Measurement: CapacitanceUnit: pF
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Victim Voltage
Victim Voltage is calculated when the victim being actively driven, then the driver will supply current to oppose to reduce the victim's noise.
Symbol: Vtm
Measurement: Electric PotentialUnit: V
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Ground Capacitance
Ground Capacitance is the capacitance at the ground of the CMOS Circuit.
Symbol: Cgnd
Measurement: CapacitanceUnit: pF
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Agressor Voltage
Agressor Voltage refers to the avoided voltage in a CMOS circuit, which is typically a small positive voltage added to the input signal to avoid unwanted triggering of the circuit.
Symbol: Vagr
Measurement: Electric PotentialUnit: V
Note: Value should be greater than 0.

How to Evaluate Adjacent Capacitance?

Adjacent Capacitance evaluator uses Adjacent Capacitance = (Victim Voltage*Ground Capacitance)/(Agressor Voltage-Victim Voltage) to evaluate the Adjacent Capacitance, The Adjacent capacitance formula is defined as the capacitance that is adjacent to the node Ae wire A switches while B is supposed to remain constant. Adjacent Capacitance is denoted by Cadj symbol.

How to evaluate Adjacent Capacitance using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Adjacent Capacitance, enter Victim Voltage (Vtm), Ground Capacitance (Cgnd) & Agressor Voltage (Vagr) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Adjacent Capacitance

What is the formula to find Adjacent Capacitance?
The formula of Adjacent Capacitance is expressed as Adjacent Capacitance = (Victim Voltage*Ground Capacitance)/(Agressor Voltage-Victim Voltage). Here is an example- 8.1E+12 = (12.75*2.98E-12)/(17.5-12.75).
How to calculate Adjacent Capacitance?
With Victim Voltage (Vtm), Ground Capacitance (Cgnd) & Agressor Voltage (Vagr) we can find Adjacent Capacitance using the formula - Adjacent Capacitance = (Victim Voltage*Ground Capacitance)/(Agressor Voltage-Victim Voltage).
What are the other ways to Calculate Adjacent Capacitance?
Here are the different ways to Calculate Adjacent Capacitance-
  • Adjacent Capacitance=((Victim Driver*Time Constant Ratio*Ground Capacitance)-(Agression Driver*Ground A Capacitance))/(Agression Driver-Victim Driver*Time Constant Ratio)OpenImg
Can the Adjacent Capacitance be negative?
No, the Adjacent Capacitance, measured in Capacitance cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Adjacent Capacitance?
Adjacent Capacitance is usually measured using the Picofarad[pF] for Capacitance. Farad[pF], Kilofarad[pF], Millifarad[pF] are the few other units in which Adjacent Capacitance can be measured.
