The fast via tool is developed associated with the physics based via model and is combined with the calculation of plane impedance and via capacitance block by block. The entire via model is built by connecting those via blocks one after another accordingly. The plane impedance is calculated from an analytical formula and the via capacitance is computed from the point of view of energy by solving the potential distribution on each via block using FEM. Via stub length is predicted with the observation of strong resonant trough on the insertion loss, which can be in single-ended mode or mixed mode. Two cases, one signal via surrounded by eight ground vias and four signal vias surrounded by four ground vias, are used to verify the modelling accuracy of the fast via tool by correlating to the measurements. The third case is about via stub length extraction as well as the sensitivity investigation between the stub length and the resonant frequency.","PeriodicalId":185326,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE Electrical Design of Advanced Package & Systems Symposium","volume":"359 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115470352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Today, the package inductance and resistance has been reduced to such an extent that core switching noise caused by on-chip inductance and on-chip resistance is gaining importance as compared to I/O drivers switching noise. Both on-chip inductance and skin effect are prime players at frequencies of the order of GHz. The problem is further aggravated when chips are interconnected through TSVs to form a 3D integrated stack in order to achieve low form factor and high integration density. In this paper we analysed peak core switching noise in a 3D stack of integrated chips interconnected through power distribution TSV pairs, through our comprehensive mathematical model which has been proved to be quite accurate as compared to SPICE. We analysed the effect of number of chips in a 3D stack, rise time, decoupling capacitance, and skin effect on power distribution TSVs induced core switching noise in this paper.","PeriodicalId":185326,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE Electrical Design of Advanced Package & Systems Symposium","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115041013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, decoupling schemes in such SiP's must be carefully designed to reduce the impedance of power distribution network (PDN) as low as possible up to high frequency range and to avoid the parallel resonance occurred by chip-package connection. In this paper, a test chip was designed and fabricated to generate noise and to monitor on-chip power supply noise. Then, a power noise evaluation system has been established. Power supply noise on core circuits was measured with a noise monitoring circuit. The noise on output buffer circuit was measured by a fixed high/low method. Power supply noises were examined in various decoupling schemes. They are with embedded SMD capacitors inside interposer, and SMD capacitors mounted on the backside of interposer along with on-chip capacitance.","PeriodicalId":185326,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE Electrical Design of Advanced Package & Systems Symposium","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117286746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
