Intuitive concept to determine Z0 and Td
•How physical dimensions affect impedance and delay
Sensitivity is defined as percent change in impedance
per percent change in line width, log-log plot shows sensitivity directly.
Z 0 is mostly influenced by w / h,
the sensitivity is about 100%.
It means 10% change in w / h will
cause 10% change of Z 0
