In this paper, we propose an improved trans- mission matrix method (TMM) for fast decoupling capacitance allocation. An irregular grid partition mechanism is proposed, which helps speed up the impedance computation and complies better with the irregular power/ground (P/G) plane or planes with many vias and decoupling capacitors. Furthermore, we also ameliorate the computation procedure of the impedance matrix whenever decoupling capacitors are inserted or removed at specific ports. With the fast computation of impedance change, in-package decoupling capacitor allocation is done with an efficient change based method in the frequency domain. Experimental results show that our approach can gain about 5× speedup compared with a general TMM, and is efficient in restraining the noise on the P/G plane.展开更多

Based on asymmetry line antenna theory, a novel far field CM (common mode) radiation model, including an equivalent driving source, radiation structure and some key influence factors, is identified and built up for a small flyback power supply. Radiation characteristics of this model are predicted by using Ansoft HFSS software and the model effectiveness is verified by experiment. In the end, the radiation role of some key factors, such as the length of output cable, common mode impedance of AC grid, layout of cable and reflected ground, are studied using simulation in detail.展开更多

Simulations with a resistive load circuit for power loss comparison at high frequency application are performed with 20V-rated power switching devices,including a BTB-JFET,a trench MOSFET (T-MOSFET) generally applied in present industry, and a conventional trench-gate bipolar-mode JFET (TB-JFET) without buried oxide,for the first time. The simulation results indicate that the switching power loss of the normally-on BTB-JFET is improved by 37% and 14% at 1MHz compared to the T-MOSFET and the normally-on TB-JFET, respectively. In order to demonstrate the validity of the simulation, the normally-on TB-JFET and BTB-JFET have been fabricated successfully for the first time, where the buried oxide structure is realized by thermal oxidation. The experimental results show that the Cgd of the BTB-JFET is decreased by 45% from that of the TB-JFET at zero source-drain bias. Compared to the TB-JFET,the switching time and switching power loss of the BTB-JFET decrease approximately by 7. 4% and 11% at 1MHz,respectively. Therefore,the normally-on BTB-JFET could be pointing to a new direction for the R&D of low volt- age and high frequency switching devices.展开更多
