    At smaller scales, the relative impact of intrinsic circuit properties such as interconnections may become more significant. These are called parasitic effects , and the goal of the microelectronics design engineer is to find ways to compensate for or to minimize these effects, while delivering smaller, faster, and cheaper devices.
