Abstract

Methods of optimizing decoupling capacitor placement on power distribution networks (PDNs) are often limited due to the computational complexity required to calculate the impact of connecting loads to an impedance matrix with hundreds of rows and columns. This work proposes that by removing all but one member of the impedance matrix before calculating, checking the impact of adding capacitors to the matrix can be done efficiently, and optimization methods can be viable even when requiring millions of impedance calculations.
