Impact of chip and interposer PDN to eye diagram in high speed channels

The paper applies the combined SI-PI co-simulation to on chip high speed interconnects. A complete model of chip and interposer PDN is developed and, together to a lumped model of the PCB and package PDN, it is employed to supply I/O drivers for HBM traces laid out on silicon interposer. A comprehensive analysis is carried out highlighting the impact of the decoupling capacitor placement and their corresponding parasitic inductance on the supply voltage ripple and on the output eye diagram at the signal receivers.
