Large-scale power grid analysis on parallel architectures

摘要

Systems and methods related to fast simulation of power delivery networks are described. A method is provided for simulating the time-domain responses of a plurality of points of a multi-layer power delivery network, comprising selecting a model of the power delivery network of a circuit, parsing the characteristic data describing the power delivery network, forming a circuit matrix relating to said circuit characteristic data, creating a preconditioner matrix with a specialized structure that allows solution by a Fast Transform solver, simulating the circuit using said circuit and preconditioner matrices by a computer, including a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and at least one processor, but preferably multiple processors, and reporting the responses at selected nodes and branches of the power delivery network.
