Analysis of via distribution effect on multi-layered power/ground transfer impedance of high-performance packages

The effect of via distribution on multi-layer power/ground network of high-performance packages is thoroughly analyzed. Depending on the via distribution, the effective impedance of the power/ground network is extracted from the S-parameter measurement.
