Abstract :
The electrical characteristics of a prototype high-frequency integrated circuit package are evaluated by the finite-difference time-domain method. This method gives a fast numerical solution to Maxwell´s equations in space and time. The electrical characteristics evaluated are impedance, crosstalk, transmission loss, and reflection coefficient. They are used to provide circuit models for the package structures. Modeling of the air/dielectric interface has been successfully achieved.<>
