October 2006 [Components] Simplify The Calculation Of Microstrip Dimensions Circuit traces on microstrip printed circuit boards (PCBs) form the interconnections between components in addition to the components themselves. These controlled-impedance lines are typically designed with a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω for RF/microwave circuits or 75 Ω for cable television (CATV). The equations commonly associated with calculating the geometry of microstrip lines based on a desired impedance are quite complex and not easy to handle.... |
