Abstract
An equivalent circuit for terminated hybrid-mode multiconductor transmission lines is presented. Existing CAD packages, such as SPICE, can be used for its implementation. Model parameters can be found from either a TEM or a full-wave analysis of the transmission lines. The equivalent circuit is used to simulate multiconductor microstrip for applications in highspeed integrated circuits. An examination of the validity of the TEM approximation for example cases is carried out in the time and frequency domains. © 1989 IEEE
