Abstract

A broadband Green's function computation technique that employs low wavenumber extraction on a modal summation is used to model the waveguide behavior of electronic components, systems, and interconnects on a printed circuit board. Use of the broadband technique permits discretizing the surface of the printed circuit board across a wide range of frequencies all at once. The broadband Green's function is also extended to via waveguides on circuit boards and power/ground plane waveguides of arbitrary shape. Such a method can analyze a given circuit board geometry over a broad frequency range several hundred times faster than is otherwise possible with existing commercial analysis tools. The present method is useful in electronic design automation for analyzing signal integrity and power integrity, reducing electromagnetic interference and ensuring electromagnetic compatibility.
