Incorporating Vertical Discontinuities in Power-Bus Modeling using a Mixed-Potential Integral Equation and Circuit Extraction Formulation
Proceedings of the IEEE 7th Topical Meeting on Electrical Performance of Electronic Packaging (1998, West Point, NY)
Abstract
Noise on the DC power-bus attributed to device switching is among the primary sources of EMI and signal integrity problems. A mixed-potential integral equation formulation with circuit extraction approach is used to model the planar multi-layer power-bus geometry, which can also include arbitrary shaped power regions on multiple layers. Incorporating vertical discontinuities, e.g., decoupling capacitor interconnects, is a critical aspect of the modeling, and must be done properly since they are included as a lumped element model and not a part of the MPIE formulation. Agreement with experimental results demonstrate the present approach.
