Abstract :
Signal integrity predictions on complex digital boards or packages becomes increasingly important as clock rates increase. In this contribution a dedicated method of moments that can be used for transmission, reflection, crosstalk and ground bounce simulations is briefly discussed and illustrated. A quasi-static approach is combined with the introduction of new generalized rooftop basis functions and with loop and star currents.
