Abstract :
This paper describes an approach for the simulation and modeling of power and ground planes in high speed PCB design to guide de-coupling capacitor selection and placement and to achieve optimized designs. The described approach employs a mesh of transmission lines to model planes and can also be easily extended to irregular shaped planes
