Efficient passive network description of IC conducted emission models for model reduction 1Leibniz University of Hannover, Institute of Electromagnetic Theory, Hannover, Germany 2Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration Advanced System Engineering, Paderborn, Germany Abstract. This article adresses the model reduction of IC conducted emission models. A method to efficiently deal with the high number of independent sources in IC conducted emission models, which are a strong limitation for model order reduction, is presented. A network alteration is proposed, which allows for a much higher model reduction than standard approaches. The system of the altered network can be more efficiently reduced with standard model order reduction algorithms in order to speed up frequency-simulations. Synthesising the reduced system into a passive electrical network enables fast time-simulations to be made with circuit simulators. The whole procedure is validated by reducing an example of an IC conducted emission model of an 32 Bit microcontroller.
