CDS'
Impedance Calculator performs
two-way calculations for various Microstrip and Stripline configurations between the following parameters:
- Line width
- Differential line width & spacing
- Substrate thickness
- Impedance, and dielectric constant
Quickly fine tune trace and substrate
structures with geometry calculations based on input
target impedances.
The
only impedance calculator
that will allow for trace etch taper and a separate dielectric
constant for solder mask.
The only impedance
calculator that will quickly fine tune trace and substrate
structures with geometry calculations based on input target impedances.
