Modeling the Electro-Thermal Response of Thermally Isolated Micromachined Distributed Structures

Socher E., Bochobza-Degani O., Elata D., Nemirovsky Y., Israel Institute of Technology, IL

This work analyzes the electro-thermal behavior of thermally isolated micromachined resistive structures. A novel numerical scheme for solving the coupled electro-thermal problem is suggested. The novel scheme can capture the thermal instabilities under both voltage [...]

Reduced Electro-Thermal Models for Integrated Circuits

Furmanczyk M., Napieralski A., Szaniawski K., Tylman W., Lara A., Technical University of Lodz, PL

Power dissipation density in today's integrated circuits makes thermal problems very important. Unfortunately, the electro-thennal co-simulations, which are often indispensable in solving thennal issues, are constrained by the lack of the IC's electro-thermal models. This [...]
