A 100-foot (approximately 30.5 meters) section in the figure shown is measured to determine L and C. The section is found to have an inductance of 25 mH and a capacitance of 1000 pF. Find the ...

ALEXANDRIA, VA.—As television engineers age, those brought up in the era of analog signals and the subsequent transition to digital are retiring and talking hard-earned knowledge with them. Younger ...

Have you heard recommendations to use a particular termination in particular situations for good signal integrity? Have you ever wondered how to incorporate terminations in your design? While there ...

When considering any new part in the signal chain, input/output impedance is usually an important spec to “bolt” the necessary signal-chain blocks together properly. For a high-speed converter, this ...

A particular cable has a capacitance of 40 pF/ft and a characteristic impedance of 70 Ω. a. What is the inductance per foot of this cable? b. Determine the impedance of an infinitely long section of ...

When you first start out in the PCB layout game and know just enough to be dangerous, you simply plop down a connector, run a trace or two, and call it a hack. As you learn more about the finer points ...
