Abstract

This paper proposes an efficient load model for power network noise analysis. The proposed method approximates an uninteresting part of a large mesh-structured circuit to a simple load model which consists of a couple of RLC elements. In the experimental results, the proposed method reduced a CPU time of SPICE simulation by up to 95% while suppressing the maximum and average voltage errors less than 0.0207 and 0.0048 respectively.
