These may be single-chip package interconnects, or connections between chips in a multiple-chip system, and include chip electrical connections (bondwires, C4, etc.) and package or connector pins/bumps. Phenomena which are critical to error-free product performance are discussed, and alternative methods of modeling and simulating these phenomena are presented. Similarities and differences of on-chip and off-chip interconnect characteristics are noted when appropriate.","PeriodicalId":373721,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Bipolar/BiCMOS Circuits and Technology Meeting","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130657819","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}
