Analysis of Multidielectric Multiconductor Hybrid Circuits Using a Closed-form MoL Approximation

摘要

In this paper, the quasi-static parameters of planar multilayer structures are determined using closed-form approximations, where the thickness of the metal strips is considered. This improves the zero thickness analysis used previously by many authors. The developed algorithm is based on the method of lines. The technique is well suited for planar structures. Compared to other methods, it is simpler, accurate, and has no convergence problem. Its semianalytical nature allows saving significant memory and computation time.
