Simple Method for Calculating Backside Via Inductance

Backside via self-inductance is a critical electrical quantity needed for the design of Monolithic Millimeter-wave Integrated Circuits (MMIC). We have investigated a simple, analytical method for accurately calculating via inductance based upon physical geometry. The analytical method enables backside via process development to be tailored to meet design goals. Conversely, the sensitivity of RF...

A Simple Method For Calculating A “Fair” Royalty Rate

Introduction uring a licensing deal (i.e. license of a patent protecting a product), several methods are commonly used to determine what is intended to be a “fair” royalty rate. It is even recommended to combine several methods in order to cross-check that there is no discrepancy between one method and another. These methods fall into three typical groups [1-4]: (i) comparison with previous sim...

A simple method for calculating risks before DNA analysis.

Calculation of carrier risk of an X linked disease may be performed on a small computer after DNA analysis, but a method for rapid hand estimation of the risk is still useful for a quick check of the results and weighing the relative importance of each element of information, such as the determination of a haplotype. Each risk estimation is a function of a prior risk and the product of likeliho...

Monte Carlo Method for Calculating the Electrostatic Energy of a Molecule

The problem of computing the electrostatic energy of a large molecule is considered. It is reduced to solving the Poisson equation inside and the linear Poisson-Boltzmann equation in the exterior, coupled by boundary conditions. A Monte Carlo estimate for the potential point values, their derivatives, and the energy is constructed. The estimate is based on the walk on spheres and Green’s functi...
