description

We consider here a general nerwork composed by n‐distributed parameters lines (with telegraph‐equations models) and m‐capacitors, all connected by a resistive multiport. An asymptotic stability property drives us to define and evaluate a global parameter (“λ‐delay time”) which describes the speed of signals propagation through the network. Because of its simplicity of calculation and its tightness, the given upper bound of the λ‐delay time is useful in timing analysis of MOS integrated chips.
