Connector Models - Are They Any Good?
Feb 16, 2012 | Jim Nadolny, Leon Wu
Channel simulations are only as accurate as the models used to develop them. While we have seen much effort placed on printed circuit board (PCB) materials (copper finish, dielectric moisture absorption), other elements within the channel have been largel...
Novel Transmission Line for 40 GHz PCB Applications
Feb 10, 2011 | Jamal S. Izadian, Ph.D. - RFCONNEXT, Inc., Julian Ferry, Justin McAllister - Samtec, Inc.
In this paper, we discuss an electromagnetics based approach to transmission line design, and then explore a novel printed transmission line, Periodic Micro Transmission Line (PMTL™, Patents Pending), with improved signal integrity to 40 GHz....
Optimizing BNC PCB Footprint Designs for Digital Video Equipment
Nov 06, 2010 | Tsun-kit Chin
An increasing number of video equipment is running at Gigabit rates today. They are interconnected through relatively large size coaxial BNC connectors. While these connectors are in general of good quality, their performance in the equipment depends on ...
