An Experimental Analysis Of Signal Reflections On Printed Circuit Board Transmission Lines

Abstract

Signal reflections for several digital integrated circuit families are experimentally analyzed by using high-speed time domain measurements. Four test setups are designed and fabricated - the interconnect lines have different geometrical parameters. The signals that are transmitted on the line are measured using a high-performance digital oscilloscope. Each board is successively equipped with ICs from the analyzed families. Simulation results are presented in comparison with experimental results. It is shown that the circuit model must be in accordance with the manufacturer specifications in order to obtain valid simulation results.
