Modern packaging design requires extensive signal integrity simulations in order to assess
the electrical performance of the system. The feasibility of such simulations is granted only …

Rational models must be passive in order to avoid unstable time domain simulations. This
paper introduces a fast approach for passivity enforcement of pole-residue models. This is …

After providing an overview of the state-of-the-art in power distribution design and modeling,
this paper focuses on return path discontinuities (RPDs) for I/O signaling. After briefly …

Model order reduction (MOR) techniques reduce the complexity of VLSI designs, paving the
way to higher operating speeds and smaller feature sizes. This book presents a systematic …

This paper deals with the calculation of lightning-induced overvoltages on medium-voltage
(MV) and low-voltage (LV) distribution networks taking into account the presence of MV-LV …

The main idea of black-box macromodeling is to approximate the dynamic behavior of
complex systems in terms of lowcomplexity models or equivalent circuits. Such compact …

The vector fitting (VF) algorithm has become a common tool in electromagnetic compatibility
and signal integrity studies. This algorithm allows the derivation of a rational approximation …

This paper presents a comparative study of several passivity enforcement schemes for linear
lumped macromodels. We consider three main classes of algorithms. First class is …

This paper presents a strategy for the construction of parameterized linear macromodels
from tabulated port responses. These macromodels are able to reproduce the input-output …

Rational macromodels must be passive in order to guarantee a stable simulation. This paper
introduces a fast approach for enforcing passivity for S-parameter based pole-residue …
