System level signal and power integrity analysis methodology for system-in-package applications

This paper describes a methodology for performing system level signal and power integrity analyses of SiP-based systems. The paper briefly outlines some new modeling and simulation techniques that have been developed to enable the proposed methodology. Some results based on the application of this methodology on test systems are also presented
