Abstract— Frequency dependent interconnect analysis is challenging since lumped equivalent circuit models extracted at different frequencies exhibit distinct time and frequency d...
500+ MHz designs using deep-submicron (DSM) copper interconnects require accurate and efficient modeling of cladding-metals’ frequency-dependent impedance [1]. In this paper, fo...
In performance-driven interconnect design, delay estimators are used to determine both the topology and the layout of good routing trees. We address the class of moment-matching, ...
