Where the article explains it
with the via’s metal radius, the outer radius of the oxide liner, and the liner’s permittivity, while the bulk silicon beyond it contributes a finite shunt resistance rather than an open circuit.
The passage around this formula
with the via’s metal radius, the outer radius of the oxide liner, and the liner’s permittivity, while the bulk silicon beyond it contributes a finite shunt resistance rather than an open circuit. A TSV’s insertion loss is therefore not one number but a function of frequency, set by which of those two paths — the liner’s capacitance or the…
