Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for analyzing the noise prediction within one or more electrical circuits, wherein the electrical circuits have a power mesh grid distribution system that feeds power levels to the electrical circuits that are connected by signal wires. After identifying a driver and receiver electrical circuit to be analyzed, a power block is generated that is associated with the driver and receiver electrical circuit by partitioning an area of a power mesh grid distribution system into a power block that can be modeled with lossy transmission line techniques. Next, signal wires situated between the driver and receiver electrical circuits are partitioned into signal blocks that can be modeled with lossy transmission line techniques. Lastly, the power blocks and signal blocks associated with the electrical circuits are analyzed in order to predict the noise performance within the electrical circuits.

Abstract: A computer aided design (CAD) system. A template generation engine generates templates from interconnect configuration files. A field solver generates high frequency passive element relationships from the templates. A circuit builder generates circuit description files from device technology models and from high frequency passive element relationships. Parameterized circuit description models may be generated for large range of sensitivity analyses. A simulator simulates circuit responses for transmission line models from the circuit description files. Interconnect configuration files may be generated by a geometry and material definition module that receives process description data from a designer.
