Benjamin,
This is not a surprise; you probably have shared impedance on your planes for 
multiple current sinks.  So look at the current flow path from VRM to each sink 
location and identify the plane regions where these currents overlap.  On these 
overlapped sections you apply Ohm's law using the sum of corresponding sink 
currents and your experiment will then make sense.

Subject: [SI-LIST] [Q] IR Drop

Dear all mentors,


I¡¯m beginner at SI/PI area based on microwave eng¡¯g.

Currently, I¡¯m doing simple example which have one voltage source(=3.3V)
and three current sink location.



Can anyone explain to me why IR drop amplitude is bigger at which smaller
sink current passes?
