Abstract :
We first discuss the need for computational electromagnetics (CEM) in high-frequency IC design. We then review recent advances in CEM, present chip design challenges to CEM analysis, and analyze the shortcomings of current CEM methodology. We then emphasize the importance of chip-design-driven CEM development, and finally present some promising full-wave electromagnetic-based solutions that can achieve full-chip analysis and design.
