Abstract

This paper analyzes the fundamental behavior of PCB power bus structures using the modal expansion method. The results are validated by experiments and full-wave numerical modeling. It is shown that the power bus can be modeled as a series L e C circuit below the first board resonance frequency. C is the interplane capacitance and L e is an effective inductance contributed by all the cavity nodes. The effects of the layer thickness, port location, board size and the feeding wire radius on the value of L e are discussed in this study. L e can be estimated from the geometry parameters of the test board. The goal is to obtain a simple model that can be used to analyze the power bus impedance below the first board resonance.
