An electrical resistance determination method. Input to the method
includes a description of at least one electrical network within a
substrate. The description includes specification of a plurality of first
ports on a first side of the substrate, and a plurality of second ports
on a second side of the substrate, for each electrical network. All of
the first ports are electrically isolated from one another. All of the
second ports are electrically connected to a common voltage. A computer
readable program code, which is executed by a processor of a computer
system computes for a first electrical network of the at least one
electrical network an electrical resistance between each first port and a
port of the second ports. The computer code may also display a
perspective plot of the computed electrical resistances as a bar oriented
about normal to each first port.
