Where
kL = PCB inductance per unit length.
Both the metric and imperial version of the constant are given.
kL = 0.2nH/mm, or 5.076 × 10–3nH/mil
kC = PCB capacitance per unit length.
Both the metric and imperial version of the constant are given.
kC = 0.0555pF/mm, or 1.41 × 10–3pF/mil
h = separation between planes
d = diameter of via hole
d1 = diameter of the pad surrounding the via
d2 = distance to inner layer ground plane
εr = PCB dielectric constant (εr ≈ 4.5 for FR-4)
Example
Calculate the total inductance and capacitance if h = 1.6mm, d = 0.4mm, d1 = 0.8mm, and d2 = 1.5mm.
Answer
Example
Calculate the total inductance and capacitance if h = 63mil, d = 15.8mil, d1 = 31.5mil, and d2 = 59mil.
Answer
L = 1.2nH, C = 0.46pF. Note: this is the same example as above with imperial units.
