Abstract :
This paper describes a technique that makes the computational intensive moment method (MM) competitive for analyzing transients on PCBs. The technique uses equivalent wires to model the conducting tracks at low frequencies, 2-D sheet impedance approximation for the dielectric substrate and dynamic adaptive sampling to obtain the frequency spectrum
