Abstract

Investigation of the immunity of ICs to EFTs is increasingly important. In this paper, an accurate model of a microcontroller is developed and verified. This model consists of two parts: a passive Power Distribution Network (PDN) model and an active I/O protection network model. Measurement methods are designed to extract the parameters of the passive PDN model. The accuracy of the overall model of the IC is verified using both S parameter tests and EFT injection tests. The model is able to accurately predict the voltage and current at power-supply and I/O pins and correctly accounts for the active components of the I/O protection network.
