Abstract
A general procedure for computing the capacitance coefficients of multilevel interconnections in multilayered dielectric medium is given. The electromagnetic concept of total charge density is applied. It makes it possible to obtain integral equations between scalar potential and charge density distributions. These equations are solved by the method of moments technique. To optimize the computational algorithm, special consideration is given to the limitation of the dimensions of the dielectric interfaces. Simple criteria are introduced to divide the interfaces into an optimum number of elementary parts. Theoretical results thus obtained agree closely with the experimental results from test vehicles.Keywords
