This paper presents a framework for modeling and mixed-mode simulation of circuits/interconnects and electromagnetic (EM-) radiations. The proposed framework investigates the signal integrity in VLSI chips, packages and wiring boards at the GHz-band level, and verifies the electromagnetic interference (EMI) and the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of high-speed systems. In our framework, the frequency characteristics of interconnects and EM-radiations are extracted by the full-wave FDTD simulation. The macromodels of interconnects are synthesized as SPICE subcircuits, and the impulse responses of EM-radiations are stored in the database. Once the macromodels are synthesized, the circuit simulation with the consideration of EM-effects can be performed by using SPICE. The EM-field distributions can be also easily calculated by taking convolutions of pre-simulated EM impulse responses and the SPICE results.
