One of the issues that beginning electronic engineers must grasp is the concept of impedance and impedance matching, epically with respect to transmission lines, cables, and connectors. This FAQ ...

We are specifically and deliberately going to do without the Smith chart today and look at some transmission line properties from a very basic perspective. Consider a transmission line, a coaxial ...

Your radio station transmitter is a perfect 50 ohm source connected to pure 50 ohm line that feeds an ideal 50 ohm antenna. What are the current and voltage characteristics along the transmission line ...

Even before entering the mystical realms of UHF design, radio frequency (RF) circuits come with a whole range of fun design aspects as well. A case in point can be found in transmission line ...

Download the full pdf of this article, which includes the inline equations and diagrams. Discussion continues at the national level about power grid upgrades to support increased electrification. In ...

Maximum transmission efficiency occurs when the load impedance matches the generator impedance. Engineers do this to eliminate standing waves, which can severely damage equipment. Transmission lines ...

As you probably know if you've been shopping for cables, coax for most video applications is "75 ohm" coax–but what the heck does that mean, anyway? This article is a short, non-technical explanation ...

January 27, 2014. Agilent Technologies today introduced Agilent EEsof EDA’s Controlled Impedance Line Designer. The software product quickly and accurately optimizes stack up and line geometry for ...
