A technique requiring a minimum of computational effort is presented for providing engineering estimates of the effect of package mismatch, line loss, and crosstalk. The technique entails modifying the Fourier series of a symmetrical trapezoid (which serves as a reasonable approximation to an actual digital signal) by transfer functions representing mismatch, loss, or crosstalk. Transfer functions are introduced which utilize frequently-domain data (measured or calculated) and provide the necessary transition to the time-domain performance. Sample calculations are given along with an interpretation of the results. >read more

Analysis of high-speed VLSI interconnects using the asymptotic waveform evaluation technique
T.K. Tang,Michel Nakhla +1 more
TL;DR: The asymptotic waveform evaluation technique provides a generalized approach to lumped RLC circuit response approximations and can be used to evaluate transient responses of high-speed interconnect circuits with negligible error compared with conventional circuit simulators, while being two to three orders of magnitude faster.

Alternating-Current Resistance of Rectangular Conductors
TL;DR: In this article, new experimental data were presented for conductors having ratios of width to thickness of 1 to 1 to 2400 to 1 for frequencies up to eight kilocycles, and these data were co-ordinated with existing data furnishing an experimental proof of the "principle of similitude."
