3D IR-Drop simulation of a complex multilayer PCB

3D IR-Drop simulation of a complex multilayer PCB
This article deals with the simulation of the voltage drop for complex power delivery networks. Such a simulation is useful to the design engineer in order to ensure power integrity. With the help of the CST EM STUDIO™ stationary current solver the 3D distribution of the potential and current density on all layers of a complex PCB board can be easily determined. The static IR-Drop simulation is the primary focus in this article but a dynamic simulation would also be possible in CST MICROWAVE STUDIO®. Read full article..
