Novel acceleration methods for electromagnetic modeling of high-speed interconnects in distribution grids ASIC

Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) serving as the hardware foundation of smart equipment, play an important role in operation, control, protection and communication of future distribution grids. Recently, the design and electromagnetic (EM) analysis of high-speed interconnects is the key part for Integrated Circuit (IC) technology, especially for ASICs. The full wave spectral domain approach (SDA) in conjunction with Method of Moment (MoM) is the most accurate and comprehensive approach among all EM modeling approach of high-speed interconnects. However, acceleration methods are needed to decrease its complexity and increase its efficiency. Novel acceleration methods in SDA are present to solve a typical high-speed interconnect structure. Numerical results show that the novel methods can achieve higher accuracy and efficiency than conventional acceleration methods.
