Analysis of Multilayer Boxed Printed Circuits

This paper presents an efficient integral equation (IE) formulation based on the method of moments (MoM) for analysis of packaged printed circuits embedded within a multilayered medium. The approach uses a robust algorithm for computing the parameters of equivalent transmission lines, the analytic integration of MoM reaction terms, and the acceleration technique based on the extraction of quasi-static part. The algorithms are implemented in the simulation tool MAMBO (simulation of arbitrary multilayer boxed printed circuits). The simulation results of several packaged multilayered circuits show good agreement with the results obtained using commercial simulation tools, outperforming them in terms of computational time
