Abstract :
A numerical procedure for extracting parasitic circuit elements using a quasi-static field solver, as part of the virtual test bed (VTB), is discussed. The parasitic inductance and capacitance values obtained from the model are compared to measured values from a low-inductance power electronic building block (PEBB) module, designed and constructed at Harris Semiconductor
