Current IssueBreaking High-speed Material Constraints
Do you need specialty materials for your high-speed designs? Maybe not. Improvements in resins mean designers of high-speed boards can sometimes use traditional laminate systems. Learn more in this issue.
Level Up Your Design Skills
This month, our contributors discuss the PCB design classes available at IPC APEX EXPO 2024. As they explain, these courses cover everything from the basics of design through avoiding over-constraining high-speed boards, and so much more!
Opportunities and Challenges
In this issue, our expert contributors discuss the many opportunities and challenges in the PCB design community, and what can be done to grow the numbers of PCB designers—and design instructors.

Losses Induced by Asymmetry in Differential Transmission Lines
August 20, 2008 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
Differential transmission lines are usually modeled and analyzed as perfectly balanced structures, but asymmetries can substantially increase the differential loss profile. This paper, written by Gustavo Blando, Jason R. Miller and Istvan Novak of Sun Microsystems and presented at DesignCon 2007, examines loss due to nonuniformities in the dielectric, and it explores different simulation methodologies to include these effects.
