rfnetwork.utils.ms_z_to_width(z, er, d)

Calculate approximate microstrip width for a given characteristic impedance. See equation on page 149 of [1].

Return type:

float

Parameters

z: float

target characteristic impedance of microstrip line

er: float

relative permittivity of substrate

h: float

height of substrate

Returns

float

line width in the same units as h.
