Abstract(in English) This paper describes a novel method to simulate transient responses of interconnects. First, the impulse responses between any pair of terminals of lines are obtained by the finite-difference time-domain(FDTD)method, where the network partitioning technique is exploited for CPU time reduction. Next, Y-parameter of the network is composed from the Y-parameters of partitioning subnetworks. Then, the macromodels are synthesized from the frequency responses. Finally, with this model, the transient responses are rapidly simulated by the conventional circuit simulators. In conclusion the validity of this method is verified by comparison with the time-consuming FDTD simulation.
