Summary:
As new NAND specification such as Toggle 2.0 has been standardized and developed, supply voltage has been reduced from 3.3V to 1.8V because of the adoption of high-speed I/O. Accordingly, due to issues of the backward compatibility with previous specifications and the power budget, voltage regulator implemented in a package should supply the power to the I/Os. In this paper, we propose the advanced SI/PI co-simulation methodology including voltage regulator circuitry for high-performance multi-chip packages. It is shown that the proposed simulation can detect the vulnerability of PDN related to the output of voltage regulator in the design stage of high-perfomance multi-chip packages, and can help optimize PCB design including PDN. It is also shown that the simulation are in good agreement with measurements.
