Methods for producing equivalent circuit models of multi-layer circuits and apparatus using the same

摘要

A method and an apparatus for obtaining an equivalent circuit model of a multi-layer circuit are disclosed. The method includes simulating the multi-layer circuit using an electromagnetic field analysis to provide a coupling network; and simplifying the coupling network using a circuit model order reduction method to generate the equivalent circuit model. The method is very simple to implement and the equivalent circuit model obtained has an apparent physical meaning.
