Abstract
In this paper, we present new moment models for uniform, nonuniform and coupled transmission lines. The moment model of a line is based on the relationships between the two port currents (KCL) and the two port voltages (KVL) of the line. The parameters of the model depend on the mean values of the voltage moments and the weighted voltage moments of the line. Simple formulas are given to compute these mean values efficiently. By using such models and moment matching techniques, interconnects modeled as transmission line networks can be efficiently simulated. In addition, by using moment sensitivities, we demonstrate that wire sizing optimization can be carried out for layout design. 1 Introduction With the rapid increase of the signal frequency and decrease of the feature sizes in high speed electronic circuits, interconnects play increasingly important roles. Not only the signal delay due to interconnects is often significantly larger than the transistor delay, On leave from Nanjin...
