According to the proposed equivalent circuit model and the design formulas, these ground resonators can provide a shorting path for the common-mode return current around the resonant frequency and prevent the noise from exciting the antenna-like slotline. Based on the proposed concept, the solution board and the reference board are both fabricated by typical PCB process. The experimental results demonstrate that the normalized total loss of the common-mode is effectively reduced by the connected ground resonators around the designed frequency range. Also, the simulated results indicate that the radiated emission caused by the slot-crossing common-mode noise is greatly reduced more than 5 dB from 2.34 GHz to 3.55 GHz. It is a cost-effective solution to reduce the radiated emission from the slot-crossing common-mode noise around GHz frequency range on high-density package or PCB.","PeriodicalId":440959,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127721449","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}

In this technique, the dielectric constant is extracted from the resonance frequencies of a parallel-plate waveguide resonator. The standard method cannot be applied to extract the loss tangent. Recently, the full-sheet resonance method has been extended to extract the loss tangent as well. The new method makes use of a new rapid plane solver and resonators with shorted boundaries. The materials properties are extracted by fitting the simulations to measurements. In this paper, we will demonstrate how the fitting process can be automated. In order to extract the dielectric constant and loss tangent, many simulations need to be run to find the parameters that provide the best match with the measurements. This is a computationally expensive approach. We will present a new method based on tracking sensitivity, which provides a parameterized macromodel for the resonators. Using this approach, the simulation data can be expressed as a low-order rational function of the complex permittivity. Hence, varying the complex permittivity to find the best fit can be done in negligible time after the macromodel has been generated. This new method will be applied to extract the dielectric constant and loss tangent of FR-4.","PeriodicalId":440959,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"45 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120924925","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}

The framework consists of (a) optimizing via structures for impedance matching using a Genetic algorithm, and (b) numerically characterize, by Polynomial Chaos (PC) method, the sensitivity of the equivalent characteristic impedance to the manufacturing uncertainties in the various geometrical parameters of a via structure. The PC method can be effectively used to compute important statistical information, such as moments, probabilities and sensitivities with respect to the design variables. The PC method is straightforward to implement, and can be orders of magnitude faster than the traditional Monte Carlo (MC) method.

The on-board decoupling was applied to a side-channel attack standard evaluation board (SASEBO-G) involving a cryptographic FPGA that operated an AES-128 encryption process. Two decoupling conditions were examined. Radio frequency (RF) power current was detected with a current probe that was placed on a power cable connected to SASEBO-G for the cryptographic FPGA. Traces of the RF power current were recorded repeatedly with a digital oscilloscope until 30,000 traces were acquired in each decoupling condition. The traces were analyzed statistically by using the correlation power analysis (CPA). Results of CPA show that necessary number of traces to reveal the secret key significantly increased when the RF power current was attenuated by decoupling over the dominant frequency range in spectra of the RF power current. The decoupling technique can be useful as a countermeasure of side-channel analysis attacks to cryptographic modules.","PeriodicalId":440959,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122782268","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}
