ABSTRACT:
An RLGC library is generated so as to include fringe RLCG functions for 2-D canonical interconnect structures. During parameter extraction for selected interconnect structures of an integrated circuit, printed circuit board, or integrated circuit package design, the RLGC library is used to generate fringe RLGC coefficients which in addition to area RLGC coefficients calculated on-the-fly, are used to generate equivalent RLGC circuits or S-parameters for simulating the interconnect structures.
