Abstract
A three dimensional wiring inductance calculating system taking the wiring as analyzing space expressed as three-dimensional configuration and make discrete the analyzing space into a finite number of partial elements. By solving a Poisson's equation with respect to an electrical potential in the discrete analyzing space, a current value and a current density vector distribution within the wiring are derived. Also, by solving an integral equation of a vector potential including the current density vector at each of points of partial elements within the wiring by making discrete, the vector potential as a boundary condition at a boundary of the wiring is derived. Then, the vector potential is derived by solving a vector potential equation in the discretized analyzing space with taking the vector potential value at the boundary as the boundary condition. A product of the obtained vector potential and the current density vector per unit current value is normalized for deriving an integral sum of the produce within the analyzing space and calculating an inductance of the wiring.
