Demystifying 3D ICs: the pros and cons of going vertical
W.R. Davis,John W. Wilson,S. Mick,Jian Xu,Hao Hua,C. Mineo,A.M. Sule,Michael B. Steer,Paul D. Franzon +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a high-level discussion of the pros and cons of 3D technologies, with an analysis relating the number of transistors on a chip to the vertical interconnect density using estimates based on Rent's rule.
Journal ArticleDOI
An electronically tunable microstrip bandpass filter using thin-film Barium-Strontium-Titanate (BST) varactors
J. Nath,Dipankar Ghosh,Jon Paul Maria,Angus I. Kingon,Wael M. Fathelbab,Paul D. Franzon,Michael B. Steer +6 more
TL;DR: A tunable third-order combline bandpass filter using thin-film barium-strontium-titanate varactors and fabricated on a sapphire substrate is reported in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear circuit analysis using the method of harmonic balance—A review of the art. Part I. Introductory concepts
TL;DR: The harmonic balance method is a technique for the numerical solution of nonlinear analog circuits operating in a periodic, or quasi-periodic, steady-state regime as mentioned in this paper, which can be used to efficiently derive the continuous-wave response of numerous nonlinear microwave components including amplifiers, mixers, and oscillators.
Book
Foundations of Interconnect and Microstrip Design
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a theoretical analysis of signal transmission on ICs, including the following: Transmission Line Theory, Capacitance Matrix Extraction, Parallel Coupled Lines and Directional Couplers, and Microstrip Design at Low Frequencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of spectral regrowth in microwave amplifiers based on the nonlinear transformation of a complex Gaussian process
TL;DR: In this paper, a statistical technique is presented for the characterization of spectral regrowth at the output of a nonlinear amplifier driven by a digitally modulated carrier in a digital radio system.
