A frequency domain sensitivity analysis of closed-loop multiconductor transmission lines

摘要

A frequency domain technique for the optimization, sensitivity, and robustness analysis of a large high-speed lossy multiconductor transmission line networks in VLSI regimes is presented. The technique is used to demonstrate the superiority of closed-loop topologies in terms of their electrical performance. To demonstrate this superiority, the numerical frequency domain results are validated by independent time domain simulations and measurements.
