Abstract

The traditional analysis of signal delay in a transmissionline begins with a lossless LC representation,which yields a wave equation governing the system response;2-port parameters are typically derived andthe solution is obtained in the transform domain. Inthis paper, we begin with a distributed RC line modelof the interconnect and analytically solve the resulting diffusion equation for the voltage response. A newclosed form expression for voltage response is obtainedby incorporating...
