Abstract :
Full-wave EM simulations are computationally expensive given the complexity of packaging structures in modern mixed signal systems. Fast methods such as the transmission matrix method are inaccurate as they do not model discontinuities such as metal edges and gaps. In this paper, simple models for the edge effect and gap coupling are developed for the finite difference frequency domain method. Results are presented comparing the accuracy of the proposed method with full-wave simulations and measurements
