SEMICONDUCTOR MODELINGFor Simulating Signal, Power, andElectromagnetic Integrity
Why Read This Book? Semiconductor Modeling is written to give designers and engineers the broadest possible view of using semiconductor models to design high-speed circuit boards. Most issues in the field of designing high-frequency circuits, from the beginning of modeling and simulation using EDA tools to future trends, are discussed and integrated. The authors focus on key ideas in each area. The main technical focus of Semiconductor Modeling is on the use of simulation to help solve practical engineering problems. It draws on over 90 years of diverse technical experience and brings together theory, tools, components, software, and experience to help engineers create successful electronic products. This book is written to help engineers understand how to go about problem solving while designing high-speed circuits. In particular, it helps engineers in the following areas: • What to do about non-existent, incomplete, and erroneous semiconductor circuit models. • How to apply EDA tools to achieve practical designs despite model limitations. • How a grasp of basic high-speed digital, RF, and EMC design concepts guides design intent. • How to apply EDA tools to cutting-edge digital technology. • How to work with suppliers, CAD team members, and others. • How processes and procedures enable and enhance the design process. Who Should Read This Book? This book is written for electronics engineering students and professionals working with models and simulation. This means choosing, obtaining, simulating, analyzing, and verifying models. The authors’ goal is to organize and present the material in a way that is helpful to circuit and product design engineers who have little or no specialized knowledge of high-speed digital design or semiconductors. To get the most from this book, the reader should have: • A basic familiarity of analog electronic circuit design, Ohm’s Law, and signal analysis in time and frequency domains. • Exposure to different types of semiconductor devices. • A Bachelor of Science in Electrical or Electronics Engineering (or its equivalent) or several years of practical experience. What Models Are Covered? The following information about models is covered: • Their inner workings • Their suitability • Their limitations • Their design benefits Specifically, the book covers IBIS models in detail. They are the most useful models for simulation of high-speed digital designs. For the sake of completeness, other models are also included. They are: • 2-Port (“black-box”) matrix models. They form an underpinning to 2- Port Scattering-Parameter models and find application inside many of the EDA programs used for simulation. • SPICE models. • Scattering-Parameter models. • TCAD device physics models. |
