Through silicon vias: from a physical point of view to a compact models initiation

Through silicon vias: from a physical point of view to a compact models initiation Purpose – The substrate coupling and loss in integrated circuits are analyzed. Then, the authors extract impedances between any numbers of embedded contacts. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – The paper proposes a new substrate network 3D extraction technique, adapted from a transmission line method or Green kernels, but in the whole volume. Findings – Extracting impedances between any numbers of embedded contacts with variable shapes or/and through silicon via. This 3D method is much faster comparing with FEM Originality/value – Previous works consider TSVs alone, contacts onto the substrate. The authors do study entanglement between the substrate and the interconnections. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png COMPEL: The International Journal for Computation and Mathematics in Electrical and Electronic Engineering Emerald Publishing

Abstract

Purpose – The substrate coupling and loss in integrated circuits are analyzed. Then, the authors extract impedances between any numbers of embedded contacts. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – The paper proposes a new substrate network 3D extraction technique, adapted from a transmission line method or Green kernels, but in the whole volume. Findings – Extracting impedances between any numbers of embedded contacts with variable shapes or/and through silicon via. This 3D method is much faster comparing with FEM Originality/value – Previous works consider TSVs alone, contacts onto the substrate. The authors do study entanglement between the substrate and the interconnections.
