  • Abstract
    This paper proposes the multi-level-abstraction electro-thermal model of an integrated power device. Thermal aspects are rendered with a distributed 3D description and coupled both with analytical and logic equations. A comparison of measurements and simulation results demonstrates the validity of the chosen approach, based on VHDL-AMS.
