crosstalk

PCB Microstrip Crosstalk

Estimates the crosstalk coupling between two adjacent microstrip traces using: Xtalk = 20 × log₁₀(1 / (1 + (s/h)²)), where s is the trace spacing and h is the substrate height. Result is in dB — more negative means less crosstalk.

Inputs

Trace Spacing(mm)

Edge-to-edge spacing between adjacent traces in millimetres

Substrate Height(mm)

Height of the dielectric substrate in millimetres

Results

⚠Substrate height must be greater than zero

Crosstalk—dBCrosstalk coupling in dB — more negative value means less crosstalk
