Abstract :
A method for the time domain simulation of coupled interconnects in a layered medium with meshed ground planes is presented. The method, based on the quasi-TEM spectral domain analysis of the layered structure and the SPICE model consisting of delay elements and linear dependent sources, is used to study crosstalk in coupled interconnects. The theoretical results are validated by experimental data, and it is shown that the presence of slots and meshes in ground planes can reduce the far-end crosstalk in coupled interconnects
