stripline_syn - Symmetric stripline transmission line synthesis

SYNOPSIS

stripline_syn z0 w h l tmet rho rough er tand f flag

PARAMETERS

INPUT PARAMETERS

z0 : desired characteristic impedance (Ohms)
w : width of stripline line (meters)
h : substrate thickness (meters)
l : lentgh of stripline line (meters)
tmet : metal thickness (meters)
rho : resistivity of the metalization (relative to copper)
rough : conductor surface roughness (meters-rms)
er : substrate relative permitivitty
tand : substrate loss tangent
f : synthesis frequency (Hz)
flag : indicates which parameters should be optimized
- flag=1 : synthesize the metal width
- flag=1 : synthesize the substrate thickness
- flag=2 : synthesize the substrate dielectric constant
- flag=3 : synthesize the metal length

OUTPUT VALUES

w_out : Calculated width of stripline line (meters)
h_out : Calculated height of stripline line (meters)
l_out : Calculated length of stripline line (meters)
er_out : Calculated substrate relative permitivitty of stripline line

DESCRIPTION

Function to synthesize the physical dimenstions of a single stripline transmission line to achieve a desired characteristic impedance and electrical length. The desired characteristic impedance and some of the physical dimensions of the stripline line are given as inputs and the remaining dimensions are calculated.
