Intercept Impedance Calculator

Calculates impedance for common microstrip & stripline transmission line types.

Intercept Technology’s Impedance Calculator allows engineers specializing in the design and layout of printed circuit boards to calculate the total electrical impedance for the following transmission line types:

Microstrip

Embedded microstrip

Edge-coupled microstrip

Symmetric stripline

Asymmetric stripline

Broadside-coupled stripline

Enter physical line values for dielectric height/thickness, wire width, wire thickness, relative dielectric constant and wire gap (if applicable) to calculate impedance. The calculator also determines wire width if the impedance is known.

Additional information:

The calculator displays the formula used for each transmission line type, if needed.

Units may be selected as microns or MM as needed. Impedance is calculated in Ohms.
