Abstract A methodology is described for the analysis on superconductive interconnects. First, the time‐domain impedance boundary condition (TDIBC) of a superconductor is obtained from its frequency‐domain counterpart. Next, discretization of the TDIBC is presented in the context of the finite‐difference—time‐domain (FDTD) technique. The FDTD solutions for a superconductive parallel‐plate transmission line are in good agreement with the exact solutions. Finally, the transmission property of a superconductive via is analyzed by the FDTD method. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
