Abstract:
A system for using a reference plane to control transmission line characteristic impedance includes a signal trace located in a multi-layer structure and at least one constant thickness reference plane proximate to the signal trace, the constant thickness reference plane located with respect to the signal trace so as to provide a desired characteristic impedance between the signal trace and the constant thickness reference plane.
