All,

 

I hope the following example will explain why Power Distribution Models
need to be handled as a Model Connection Wrapper around the power subckts.

 

P are Power Silicon Bump Pads

P are Power Pins and Pads

B are Buffer Silicon Bump Pads, and IBIS Pins

 

IBIS file has 6 Power Pins, 8 Buffer Pins

Silicon has 24 Power Bump Pads and 8 Buffer Bump Pads

 

The Package Pins:

 

                P

                B  B  

                P

                B  B  

                P

                P

                B  B  

                P

                B  B  

                P

 

 

 

The Silicon Bump Pads

                PPPP

                B  B  

                PPPP

 

 

For the following Case

 

                PPPP

                B  B 

                PPPP

                B  B 

                PPPP

                PPPP

                B  B 

                PPPP

                B  B 

                PPPP

 

Package Power Distribution Circuit could have:

 

1 Power Pin Node, and 1 Power Pad Node

6 Power Pin Nodes, and 24 Power Pad Nodes

2 Power Pin Nodes, and 6 Power Pad Nodes

Or any combination of 1-6 Power Pin Nodes and 1-24 Power Pad Node

 

On die power distribution can have

 

1 Power Pad Node, and 1 Power Buffer Node

24 Power Pad Nodes, and 8 Power Buffer Nodes

Or any combination of 1-24 Power Pad Nodes and 1-8 Power Buffer Nodes

 

 

Power Distribution can be done for slices:
