Hi all,
If there is a current overshooting occuping 2% time of a square wave whose high level of the working current is 5mA and low level is 0mA, supposing the metal current density is 1mA/um, then how to decide the width of the metal?
Thanks in advance.

Integrate (time-average) the current across a cycle and
use that value against your current density rule. If you have
a pulsed current density limit also provided, then also
compare that to peak current. If not, I like to use a 10X
DC current density rule of thumb for arbitrarily narrow pulses.
