Abstract

A full-wave time domain integral equation based formulation for broadband modeling of finite conductors and dielectrics in high-speed microelectronics is presented. An efficient and accurate coupling scheme is developed to enable surface integral equations to couple to modified nodal analysis for combined circuit-electromagnetic systems such as those arising in microwave and RF circuits
