Modeling the Substrate Skin Effects in Mutual RL Characteristics of General Asymmetric Coupled Interconnects
نویسندگان
چکیده
The goal of this work was to model the influence of the substrate skin effects on the distributed mutual impedance per unit length parameters of multiple coupled onchip interconnects. The proposed analytic model is based on the frequency-dependent distribution of the current in the silicon substrate and the closed form integration approach. It is shown that the calculated frequency-dependent distributed mutual inductance and the associated mutual resistance are in good agreement with the results obtained from CAD-oriented circuit modeling technique.

In this paper, we consider the finite element modeling of multilayer transmission lines for high-speed digital interconnects. We mainly focused on the modeling of the transmission structures with both cases of symmetric and asymmetric geometries. We specifically designed asymmetric coupled microstrips and four-line symmetric coupled microstrips with a two-layer substrate. We computed the capaci...

متن کاملInterconnect RL Extraction Based on Transfer Characteristics of Transmission-Line
This paper proposes a method to determine a single frequency for interconnect RL extraction. Resistance and inductance of interconnects depend on frequency, and hence the extraction frequency strongly affects the modeling accuracy of interconnects. The proposed method determines an extraction frequency based on the transfer characteristic of interconnects. By choosing the frequency where the tr...

The optimum profiles of right-angle-face anisotropically etched silicon surface-relief gratings illuminated at normal incidence for substrate-mode optical interconnects are determined for TE, TM, and random linear (RL) polarizations. A simulated annealing algorithm in conjunction with the rigorous coupled-wave analysis is used. The optimum diffraction efficiencies of the -1 forward-diffracted o...
