With continually increasing operating frequencies, the analysis of electromagnetic interference (EMI)-related effects is becoming an important issue for high-speed designs. An algorithm is presented for fast analysis of radiation and incident field coupling effects in high-speed circuits. The proposed technique provides an efficient means for combining the solutions from full-wave field solvers such as the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method with circuit level simulators such as SPICE for calculating radiated/coupled fields in arbitrarily shaped interconnect structures. The technique speeds up the whole simulation process by employing a model-reduction-based approach, and also overcomes the numerical stability problems associated with the FDTD, in the presence of nonlinear terminations. In addition, the proposed algorithm provides a direct access to existing vast device libraries of SPICE in EMI analysis 相似文献

The high speed and low power trend has imposed more and more importance on the design of the power distribution network (PDN) using multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs) for modern microelectronic packages. This paper presents a fast and efficient analysis methodology in frequency domain for the design of a PDN with a power/ground plane pair, which considers the effect of irregular shape of the power/ground plane and densely populated via-holes. The presented method uses parallel-plate transmission line theory with equivalent circuit model of unit-cell grid considering three-dimensional geometric boundary conditions. Characteristics of PDNs implemented by perforated planes including a densely populated via-hole structure is quantitatively determined based on full-wave analysis using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) periodic structure modeling method and full-wave electromagnetic field solver. Using a circuit simulator such as popularly used SPICE and equivalent circuit models for via-hole structure and perforations, the authors have analyzed input-impedance of the power/ground plane pair. Since the presented method gives an accurate and fast solution, it is very useful for an early design of multilayer PCBs. 相似文献

A major problem in power distribution networks is simultaneous switching noise (SSN), which causes several signal integrity issues. To understand the behavior of the power distribution system (PDS) and its contribution to SSN, noise prediction methods are necessary. This paper presents a method for analyzing arbitrary shaped power distribution networks both in the frequency and time domain. Using a two dimensional array of distributed RLCG circuits, the impedance of a power/ground plane pair is computed. For the efficient computation of the power distribution impedances at specific points in the network, a multi-input and multi-output transmission matrix method has been used. To verify the accuracy of this method, the simulation results have been compared with Spice which uses a circuit based approach and an analytical solution based on the cavity modes in the structure. The simulation results have also been compared with measurements for an L-shaped structure. The transmission matrix method has been applied to a split plane and an arbitrary shaped power plane to demonstrate the application of this technique to irregular geometries 相似文献

Power bus structures consisting of two parallel conducting planes are widely used on high-speed printed circuit boards. In this paper, a full-wave finite-element method (FEM) method is used to analyze power bus structures, and the resulting matrix equations are converted to equivalent circuits that can be analyzed using SPICE programs. Using this method of combining FEM and SPICE, power bus structures of arbitrary shape can be modeled efficiently both in the time-domain and frequency-domain, along with the circuit components connected to the bus. Dielectric loss and losses due to the finite resistance of the power planes can also be modeled. Practical examples are presented to validate this method. 相似文献

This paper presents an accurate and systematic approach for analysis of the signal integrity of the high-speed interconnects, which couples the full-wave finite difference time domain (FDTD) method with scattering (S) parameter based macromodeling by using rational function approximation and the circuit simulator. Firstly, the full-wave FDTD method is applied to characterize the interconnect subsystems, which is dedicated to extract the S parameters of the subnetwork consisting of interconnects with fairly complex geometry. Once the frequency-domain discrete data of the S parameters of the interconnect subnetwork is constructed, the rational function approximation is carried out to establish the macromodel of the interconnect subnetwork by employing the vector fitting method, which provides a more robust and accurate solution for the overall problem. Finally, the analysis of the signal integrity of the hybrid circuit can be fulfilled by using the S parameters based macromodel synthesis and simulation program with integrated circuits emphasis (SPICE) circuit simulator. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the proposed approach is accurate and efficient to address the hybrid electromagnetic (interconnect part) and circuit problems, in which the electromagnetic field effects are fully considered and the strength of SPICE circuit simulator is also exploited. 相似文献

针对稀疏迭代协方差估计(sparse iterative covariance-based estimation, SPICE)方法功率谱估计精度较低和计算复杂度较高的局限性,提出了一种基于稀疏迭代协方差矩阵的谐波信号功率谱和频率参数的快速估计方法。该方法主要结合渐近最小方差准则和快速傅里叶变换,对功率谱参数进行快速迭代校正估计。首先,使用SPICE算法得到功率谱和频率参数的初估计。然后,通过渐近最小方差准则得到功率谱参数的迭代校正表达式。最后,利用功率谱迭代校正式获得谐波信号的功率谱和频率参数的估计。为提高算法的计算效率,利用观测数据协方差矩阵的Toeplitz结构和导向矢量的指数形式,对协方差矩阵进行(Gohberg-Semencul, G-S)分解,通过快速傅里叶变换对协方差矩阵求逆和矩阵与向量相乘部分进行求解,从而使参数估计的计算时间大大减少。仿真实验表明,验证了所提算法对谐波功率谱和频率参数具有较高的估计精度,并且计算复杂度较低。 相似文献

This paper proposes a methodology to simulate temperature dependent timing in standard cell designs. Temperature dependent timing characteristics are derived from standard delay format (SDF) files that are created by synthesis tools automatically based on SPICE characterizations. In addition, a fast calculation of temperatures using the equivalent Foster RC network is presented. A case study is also presented in this paper where the temperature dependent frequency variation of a ring oscillator is simulated demonstrating the necessity of temperature dependent timing simulations. An adaptively refineable partitioning method for simulating standard cell designs logi-thermally is proposed as well. This paper also introduces recent enhancements in the CellTherm logi-thermal simulator developed in the Department of Electron Devices, BME, Hungary. Finally, the simulation results are compared and verified with the SPICE compatible ELDO analog simulator from Mentor Graphics. 相似文献

Largely repeated cells such as SRAM cells usually require extremely low failure-rate to ensure a moderate chi yield. Though fast Monte Carlo methods such as importance sampling and its variants can be used for yield estimation, they are still very expensive if one needs to perform optimization based on such estimations. Typically the process of yield calculation requires a lot of SPICE simulation. The circuit SPICE simulation analysis accounted for the largest proportion of time in the process yield calculation. In the paper, a new method is proposed to address this issue. The key idea is to establish an efficient mixture surrogate model. The surrogate model is based on the design variables and process variables. This model construction method is based on the SPICE simulation to get a certain amount of sample points, these points are trained for mixture surrogate model by the lasso algorithm. Experimental results show that the proposed model is able to calculate accurate yield successfully and it brings significant speed ups to the calculation of failure rate. Based on the model, we made a further accelerated algorithm to further enhance the speed of the yield calculation. It is suitable for high-dimensional process variables and multi-performance applications. 相似文献

A proposal is presented for an effective extraction method for crosstalk model parameters of high-speed interconnection lines. In the extraction procedure, mutual capacitance and mutual inductance of the coupled interconnection lines are extracted based on S-parameter measurement, time-domain-reflectometry (TDR) measurement and subsequent microwave network analysis. The extraction method is useful for characterizing homogeneous guiding structures, where the propagation of coupled transverse electromagnetic (TEM) modes is supported. In contrast to previous extraction methods, the suggested procedure requires fewer on-wafer probing steps and does not need matched terminations in the test device for high-frequency probing. The extracted models can be readily used with simulation program with integrated circuit emphasis (SPICE) circuit simulation. The procedure can also be used for modeling the crosstalk in packaging structures and multichip modules (MCMs). The proposed procedure has been successfully applied to the crosstalk model extraction of on-chip interconnection lines. Crosstalk model parameters were obtained for different line structures, spaces, and widths. Finally, the validity and reliability of the extracted models were examined by comparing a SPICE circuit simulation using the extracted crosstalk model parameters with high-speed time-domain crosstalk measurement. A close agreement was observed in the amplitude and pulse shape between the simulation and the measurement, showing the accuracy and usefulness of the proposed extraction method 相似文献

This paper presents an efficient surface-based finite-element method for the full-wave characterization of high-density and multiterminal decoupling capacitors (2, 8, 14, and any arbitrary number of terminals). In contrast to traditional finite-element methods that involve 3-D volumetric unknowns, this method reduces the unknowns one needs to solve to those on 2-D surfaces only. In addition, the reduction from the 3-D volume-based matrix to a 2-D surface-based one is achieved efficiently by exploiting the geometrical specialty of the decap structure. The entire numerical procedure is numerically rigorous without making any approximation. Its efficiency and accuracy have been demonstrated by both measurements and numerical experiments. Based on its fast and accurate solution, different design configurations of capacitors were studied to identify the optimal configuration that can maximize the performance of a decoupling capacitor. Furthermore, the full-wave model obtained from the proposed method was employed to assess the accuracy of conventional series lumped RLC capacitor models. In addition, the full-wave model was incorporated into a high-performance microprocessor's power delivery network to investigate system performance. 相似文献

As technology scales, power supply noise caused by core logic switching becomes critical. Shorter signal rise edge, high integration density, and necessity of using on-chip decoupling capacitors require that the on-chip power distribution should be modeled as an LRC transmission line network with millions of switching devices. In this paper, we propose a sophisticated power grid model consisting of distributed LRC elements excited by constant voltage sources and switching capacitors. Based on this, fast equations for core switching noise estimations were formulated. Full-chip noise distribution on the power grid with any topology was efficiently and accurately computed. SPICE simulations confirmed its efficiency and accuracy. Experimental results obtained on our benchmark circuits revealed that the proposed technique speeded up simulations by several orders of magnitude compared with SPICE, whereas typical relative error was between 0±5%. By integrating a packaging model, the new model predicts accurately the upper boundaries of noise level for power bounce, ground bounce, and differential-mode power noise. Meanwhile, locations of hot spots in the power network are precisely identified. The model is suitable for full-chip rapid simulations for on-chip power distribution design in advanced ultra large scale integration (ULSI) circuits, particularly for early stage analysis, in which global and local optimization such as topology selection, power bus sizing, and on-chip decoupling capacitor placement can be easily conducted 相似文献

An equivalent circuit model of a circular-pad grounding via is proposed based on cavity modal analysis. The modes of the via are derived analytically. Each mode is represented by an equivalent circuit taking into account ohmic losses, as well as losses due to spatial and surface wave radiation. It is shown that the degradation of grounding via characteristics at high frequencies is caused by the multimode effects and radiation. The accuracy of the proposed semi-analytical via model is comparable with that of full-wave analysis up to 75 GHz. It is fast and is easily incorporated in high-frequency circuit simulators. 相似文献
