ELECTRICAL MODELING, SIMULATION, AND DESIGN OF
ELECTRONIC PACKAGES

An Intensive Three-Day Short Course

with Raj Mittra, Paul Franzon, and Dale Becker

October 23-25, 1996 * San Jose, California

OFFERED BY

THE NORTHEAST CONSORTIUM FOR ENGINEERING EDUCATION (NCEE)
ELECTRICAL MODELING, SIMULATION, AND DESIGN OF ELECTRONIC PACKAGES

COURSE DESCRIPTION
This three-day short course will provide an in-depth coverage of
numerous aspects of electrical modeling, simulation and design of
electronic packages.
Various design options will be discussed and the electrical issues
in package design will be identified. Detailed design procedures will be
outlined and the use of CAD/CAE tools for package layout will be described.
Techniques for electromagnetic modeling and simulation of
interconnects, multiconductor transmission lines, and discontinuities in
these lines, e.g., bends, tapers and vias, will be presented.
Methods for estimating the power and ground plane noise and
spurious radiation from the package will also be discussed.

LECTURERS
Paul Franzon is an associate professor in the Department of Electrical and
Computer Engineering at North Carolina State University. He has over eight
years experience in electronic systems design and design methodology
research and development including working at AT&T Bell Laboratories and as
the founding member of a communications company. Dr. Franzon's current
research interests focus on the design sciences/methodology for high-speed
packaging and interconnect, and also for high-speed and low-power chip
design. He is a consultant to a number of companies in these areas and has
extensive experience in teaching related professional courses.

Raj Mittra is currently a professor of Electrical Engineering and the
Director of the Electromagnetic Communication Laboratory at the University
of Illinois. Beginning in August, 1996, he will move to a similar position
at Penn State University in State College, where he will also be associated
with the Applied Research Laboratory as a Senior Research Scientist. He has
directed many short courses on computational electromagnetics and
electronic packaging, both in the U.S. and in Europe, and has offered
on-site seminar series at several industrial locations including GTE
Network Systems, Cray Research, DEC, IBM and Intel. He has authored and
co-authored over 400 research papers and 20 books or book chapters. He has
served the IEEE AP-S Society as a National Distinguished Lecturer, as
President, and as an Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Antennas and
Propagation. In 1996, he was appointed a Life Fellow of the IEEE. In
addition to his University position, he also heads RM Associates, a company
that provides consulting services to many government and industrial
organizations.

Dale Becker is an Advisory Engineer in the System 390 Division of IBM in
Poughkeepsie, NY. He is responsible for the electrical design of the MCMs,
SCMs, boards and cards that are used in IBM's mainframe computers. He has
fourteen years experience applying electromagnetic numerical methods to the
issues of signal integrity and simultaneous switching noise in electronic
packaging. Dr. Becker's current interests are the electrical modeling of
packaged CMOS chips in a computer system environment, and the laboratory
verification of the models and the modeling approaches.
