Abstract

Transmission characteristics of a coaxial through-silicon via (C-TSV) interconnect are studied according to our proposed lumped-element circuit model in this paper, with some numerical results given for their design as well as optimization. The influences of their geometrical and physical parameters involved on their transmission and reflection parameters are examined and compared in detail, such as substrate conductivity, radius of the inner cylinder and its electrical conductivity, etc. It is expected that C-TSVs are better choices than that of normal TSV interconnects for effectively suppressing electromagnetic coupling among them, with signal transmission quality improved greatly. Finally, based on our own developed algorithm, the electrothermal responses of a C-TSV interconnect injected with a trapezoidal voltage pulse are also studied, with the temperature-dependent parameters treated appropriately.
