Abstract
An important issue in high-frequency signal integrity prediction is the modeling of the skin effect of thick conductors. A new differential surface admittance concept is put forward allowing to replace the conductor by equivalent electric surface currents and to replace the material of the conductor by the material of the background medium the conductor is embedded in. This new concept is studied in detail for the two-dimensional TM case starting from the Dirichlet eigenfunctions of the cross section. Detailed expressions are derived for the important practical case of a rectangular cross section. Next, the differential surface admittance operator is exploited to determine the resistance and inductance matrices of a set of multiconductor lines. A first set of numerical results provides the reader with some insight into the behavior of the surface admittance matrix. A second set of results demonstrates the correctness and versatility of the new approach to determine inductance and resistance matrices.
