High-speed digital signal propagating in PCB (Printed Circuit Board) traces deteriorates seriously in GHz domain due to the electrical loss in the trace coming from skin-effect and dielectric loss. In order to overcome this problem, we propose a novel deterministic and theoretical design method of the passive equalizer based on a single-shot pulse, in contrast to conventional stochastic designs that need repetitive computations. We also fabricate a prototype PCB board based on the proposed design method and demonstrate its effectiveness in terms of the s-parameter as well as the eye-diagram.

Electromagnetic (EM) modeling is essential to extract equivalent circuit parameters for interconnect structures in signal integrity. The modeling can be formulated by integral equation approach and surface integral equations (SIEs) are preferred whenever available. If conducting interconnects are lossy, the loss needs to be carefully considered for accurate modeling. Traditionally, the loss is approximately accounted for by a surface impedance for simplicity, but such an approximation may not be valid when the skin depth of current is large due to the small conductivity or low operating frequency of interconnects. We propose a different scheme to model the structures by treating the lossy interconnects as penetrable media and using a hybrid surface integral equations (HSIEs) to describe them. The HSIEs are solved with the method of moments (MoM), but we employ a dual basis function (DBF) to expand the magnetic current density so that the conditioning of system matrix can be greatly improved. A numerical example is presented to demonstrate the scheme and good results have been obtained.

Unlike digital designs where very complex circuits can be designed with minimal designer worries about the details of the physical technology, RF circuit and systems designs and techniques have seen very little evolution over the years and remain largely manual requiring extensive user intervention and considerable expertise. While digital hardware circuitry can be intelligently reconfigured and programed to implement multiple functions, RF circuits and modules typically have limited to no reconfigurabitly nor programmability. In this talk, RF hardware abstraction concepts are discussed and a framework for their integration in a revised design cycle that enables higher levels of automation is presented. The future application of these concepts and techniques to the automated design of intelligent RF modules is also highlighted.

A high gain V-band on-chip 2×2 dual-polarization dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) array in silicon substrate based on Integrated Passive Device (IPD) technology is presented in the paper. In the proposed structure, dielectric resonator (DR) was fed by using wire-bond structures for bandwidth and antenna efficiency improvement. The simulation and measurement regarding the DRA element reflection coefficient and isolation are conducted for design validation. The simulated results show that the antenna can operate in V-band, and the impedance bandwidth with |S11| less than −10 dB is from 55.7 GHz to 65.8 GHz. The peak gain is 10.3 dBi. The proposed design is well suited for System-in-Package millimeter-wave radio front-ends.

The recent market demand to high power 16nm FPGA has challenged package design to an unprecedented level. Specifically, logic tense applications require significantly greater dynamic current than previous generations. This paper describes recent advancements in high power FPGA package design for current-carrying capability. Firstly, new design methodologies are introduced that can link physical design for optimal current distribution directly to failure rate as a result of electro-migration (EM) in stated lifetime. Secondly, a specific design case is analyzed with the new method to show how BGA pin pattern can impact maximal current carrying capability.

In this paper, a stochastic modeling approach is proposed for time-domain variability analysis of general linear and passive systems with uncertain parameters. Starting from the polynomial chaos (PC) expansion of the scattering parameters, the Galerkin projections (GP) method is adopted to build an augmented scattering matrix which describes the relationship between the corresponding PC coefficients of the input and output port signals. The Vector Fitting (VF) algorithm is then used to obtain a stable and passive state-space model of such augmented matrix. As a result, a stochastic system is described by an equivalent deterministic macro model and the time-domain variability analysis can be performed by means of one time-domain simulation. The feasibility, efficiency and accuracy of the proposed technique are verified by comparison with conventional Monte Carlo (MC) approach for a suitable numerical example.

The IC packaging technology has a surprisingly large influence on an IC's electrostatic discharge (ESD) robustness at both the component and system levels. For charge device model (CDM) component-level ESD, the package determines the amount of energy dissipated in the die, and for both system and component-level ESD, the package determines the current return path. This tutorial will explore those phenomena and demonstrate how the on-chip ESD protection network design should be mindful of the package design. The effect of 3D integration will also be addressed.

Keysight EMPro Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulator is utilized for simulation. The simulated radiated emission is studied due to level variations of excitation voltage and the spatial coordinates (angle) of simulated point regarded to the board. The simulation results are compared to the Federall Communications Commission (FCC) Part 15 Class B at three meters limit.
