Abstract
A method for determining an allowable simultaneous switching output level on a bank-by-bank basis is described. An inductance scaling factor is determined for a first bank. A noise limit scaling factor is determined for the first bank. A bounce voltage scaling factor is determined for the first bank. The inductance scaling factor, the noise limit scaling factor, and the bounce voltage scaling factor are multiplied with one another to provide the simultaneous switching output level for the first bank.
