An efficient method for computing the capacitance matrix of multiconductor interconnects in very high-speed integrated circuit systems

A new method for computing the capacitance matrix of multiconductor interconnects with finite metallization thickness is developed. Converting the vertical wall of the rectangular conductors into the equivalent horizontal strips allows the Green's function in the spectral domain and the FFT algorithm to be used, which makes the method more effective for computing capacitance matrix of the interconnects.<
