Compact Dynamic Modeling for Fast Simulation of Nonlinear Heat Conduction in Ultra-Thin Chip Stacking Technology

Abstract

A novel nonlinear model order reduction method is proposed for constructing one-port dynamic compact models of nonlinear heat diffusion problems for ultra-thin chip stacking technology. The method leads to models of small state-space dimensions, which allow accurately reconstructing the whole time evolution of the temperature field due to an arbitrary power waveform of practical interest. The approach is also efficient, since the computational time/memory requirements for constructing each dynamic compact model is about one order of magnitude lower than that corresponding to a single 3-D finite element method transient simulation of a nonlinear problem.
