This paper describes new techniques for simulating the DC and steady-state thermal characteristics of integrated circuits using the incomplete Choleski conjugate gradient (ICCG) method, and transient electrothermal performance using an efficient macromodeling method based on asymptotic waveform evaluation (AWE). Results on several benchmark circuits show orders of magnitude reductions in CPU time and memory with accuracy comparable to that of the traditional techniques.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
