A new connectivity-based design methodology is proposed to model local hotspots due to interconnect joule heating. Compared to prior CAD approach [1], it provides resistor-scale accuracy without additional design complexity impact. Results are validated with test chip data on Intel backend process.
Engineers are always looking for more reliable or longer life power converters. Electrolytic capacitor is the critical component to be considered. Using the powerful calculation tools like Mathcad and Matlab and allowable life model, this paper aims at proposing a method to optimize the circuit design to lower the current ripple through the electrolytic capacitor in order to reach for longer capacitor...
A physical yet analytical phase change memory (PCM) model simultaneously accounting for thermal and electrical conductivities is presented. Due to the physics based nature of the model, the essential temperature from heating and cooling of PCM during operation is instantaneously updated. More importantly, the model can be applied to non-conventional circuit design technique. We show that for the first...
