Abstract

A method that would allow accurate modeling of arbitrarily shaped planes with bypass capacitors has been developed. It is compatible with a SPICE-based modeling method for the rest of the power supply hierarchy and the devices. A modified SPICE is used to accommodate distributed circuits. The distributed circuits are built with microwave analysis software and connected to SPICE by s-parameter files. The modeling process is described and examples of thick and thin-film power supply planes are presented with comparison to measured results. The method is used to explore potential design choices for a large MCM with many simultaneously switching drivers. >
