  • Abstract
    The undesired influence of the substrate on circuit performance cannot be neglected for many advanced high-speed and RF circuits and must therefore be modelled correctly already in the design phase. This paper gives an overview of the interaction between circuit components and the substrate and reviews simulation techniques that can be used to determine its influence. In addition, the integration of substrate modelling into today´s design environments will be discussed and explained by a practical example.
