Abstract :
In this paper a novel approach is proposed for generating nonlinear compact models of the dynamic electrothermal problems modeling interconnects. The method is very efficient and leads to accurate approximations of the space-time distribution of voltages, currents and temperature rises within the interconnects for all waveforms of the port variables.
