Abstract :
A compact wideband model is introduced for annular through-silicon vias in three-dimensional integrated circuits. Closed-form formulas for the per-unit-height resistances and inductances of annular TSVs are obtained with inclusion of the metal-oxide-semiconductor effect, the skin effect in metal conductors, and the eddy current loss in semiconductors. The results from these analytical formulas have comparable accuracy as those from the full-wave solver in a wide frequency range.
