IC power integrity tool.


XcitePI analyzes the power grid with distributed EM field propagation The transmission (spreading) of signals from one place to another.  effects of the pad<age, and capacitive and inductive coupling In electronics, inductive coupling refers to the transfer of energy from one circuit component to another through a shared magnetic field. A change in current flow through one device induces current flow in the other device.  between all conductors of the IC power grid. Performs transient analysis of the IC power grid simultaneously with dynamic simulation Dynamic Simulation is similar to a physics engine, the technology used in many powerful computer graphics software programs, like 3ds Max, Maya, Lightwave, and many others to simulate physical characteristics.  of EM fields in package planes, and accounts for wave propagation Wave propagation is any of the ways in which waves travel through a medium (waveguide).

With respect to the direction of the oscillation relative to the propagation direction, we can distinguish between longitudinal wave and transverse waves.
 effects in the package and distributed interaction of the IC power grid and package planes.
