Make Quick Work Of Impedance Measurements
Knowing the impedance of a transmission line can be useful for many design tasks. The line may be a piece of coaxial cable that can serve a test system setup in a laboratory, if its impedance could be found. There are various techniques for determining the impedance of a transmission line, both simple and complicated and varying in accuracy accordingly. For those in need of a relatively quick method for finding the impedance of a transmission line, based on ...

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....
