WAVE SPREADING EVALUATION OF INTERCONNECT SYSTEMS
Haifang Liao and Wayne Wei-Ming Dai
October 1992, 19 pages (paper copy $5.00)

Abstract:  With continual progress in integrated circuit processing,
operating speeds and new technologies are emerging.  The accurate high
frequency analysis is needed to design the high performance system.
This paper derives general multiport interconnect constraints and
presents a new approach -- Wave Spreading Evaluation (WSE) which uses
S-parameters based network techniques to analyze coupled, multiconductor,
high speed analog and digital integrated circuit interconnect systems.
WSE is based on the spreading process of voltage waves, the input sources
are transformed into initial spreading waves.  The spreading process is
independent of input sources, and every step of wave spreading meets the
constraints of KCL and KVL, the convergence condition is always met for
passives network.  The continual spreading of voltage waves will create
accurate results.
Keywords:  scattering parameter, multiport component, multiport
interconnect node, wave spreading.
