Collection description
The behavior of modern electronic systems can be accurately modeled only by self-consistently solving the thermal and electrical problems in a coupled electrothermal (ET) simulation. Thermal Feedback Blocks (TFBs) describing the power-temperature feedback have been proposed to meet the designers' demand for accurate - yet fast and easy to use - tools to perform thermal and ET analyses. An in-house tool has been implemented for the extraction of linear TFBs, which have been further extended by: (i) including parameterization describing design choices; (ii) proposing a novel tool based on a model order reduction technique with very high performances with respect to standard commercial solution; (iii) accounting for thermal nonlinearities in an arbitrarily-complex structure; (iv) considering advanced physical phenomena for very small devices; (v) developing a clustering-based approach to simplify the study of power delivery networks. Dynamic ET simulations relying on TFBs have been, subsequently, performed for a wide variety of applications at device, circuit and system level.
