HBM Package Interconnection Pseudo All-Channel Signal Integrity Simulation and Implementation Method of the...

This paper proposes a pseudo full-channel signal integrity (SI) simulation method tailored for high-bandwidth memory (HBM) interconnects. In this approach, real interconnect models are applied to selected portions of the channel, while the remaining sections are replaced with synchronized current loads that emulate the electrical behavior of actual signal transmission. This technique enables accurate modeling of the HBM interface under full-channel parallel data transfer conditions. In addition to the simulation methodology itself, this study focuses on three specific implementation schemes for the synchronized current loads and explores their practical applications. Comparative analysis demonstrates the necessity and effectiveness of using synchronized current loads as substitutes for real transmission loads, offering a viable and efficient solution for SI analysis in HBM interconnect systems.
