In this paper, we focus on the verification of the PCB/Package power integrity, which becomes very important for the design of state-of-art high speed digital circuits. The simulation of power distribution networks (PDNs) of the PCB/Package, which can be modeled as a large number of RLC lumped components, is a time-consuming task for using the conventional circuit simulator, such as SPICE. For this problem, we propose a parallel-distributed time-domain circuit simulation algorithm based on LIM. Furthermore, an effective modeling of frequency-dependencies of the PDNs, such as skin effects and dielectric losses, to solve by LIM is proposed.

Receptor autoradiographic technique was studied to investigate sequential changes in adenylyl cyclase, adenosine A1 receptors and L-type calcium channels in the striatum and substantia nigra 1-8 weeks after unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine injection of the medial forebrain bundle in rats. [3H]Forskolin, [3H]cyclohexyladenosine (CHA) and [3H]PN200-110 were used to label adenylyl cyclase, adenosine A1 receptors and L-type calcium channels, respectively. The degeneration of the nigrostriatal pathway caused a significant increase in [3H]forskolin binding in the striatum of both the ipsilateral and contralateral sides from 2 to 4 weeks post-lesion. The ipsilateral substantia nigra showed a transient increase in [3H]forskolin binding 4 weeks post-lesion. In contrast, [3H]CHA binding showed no significant change in most brain areas after lesioning. On the other hand, a conspicuous decrease in [3H]PN200-110 binding was observed in the dorsolateral striatum of ipsilateral side 4 weeks post-lesion. Thereafter, the striatum of both the ipsilateral and contralateral sides showed a significant decrease in [3H]PN200-110 binding 8 weeks post-lesion. These results demonstrate that unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine into the medial forebrain bundle of rats can experimentally cause a significant increase in adenylyl cyclase binding sites in the striatum and substantia nigra, whereas no conspicuous change in adenosine A1 receptors is observed in these areas during post-lesion. In contrast, L-type calcium channels were progressively damaged in the striatum after unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine treatment. These findings suggest that adenylyl cyclase and calcium system may contribute to the degeneration processes of the dopaminergic neurones.
