The routing algorithm allows a more global solution as well as the incorporation of more accurate crosstalk modeling. In addition, various time domain characteristics of MCM are analyzed in this contribution. A deembedding technique for the S -parametercalculation is presented and functions for the time-domain signals are investigated in order to decrease the computation time. Routing results show that the proposed algorithm consistently produces the better results than other previously proposed routers while offering flexibility for future incorporation of noise and delay constraints.展开更多
