N2 - The aim of this paper is to investigate how the length of communication links could affect the reliability during operations, by analysing how the Johnson-Nyquist (thermal) noise on the links affects the probability of failure (defined as the probability of switching) of devices/switches scaled to the limit like, e. g., ion channels but also nanoscale CMOS transistors. To this end, we will consider classical CMOS circuits, and base our analysis on statistical considerations. In particular, our aim is to look for the existence of an optimum wire/link length in this context, which would maximize the reliability of the simplest system formed by a communication link (wire) driving a switch (transistor or ion channel).
