The National Semiconductor Transmission Line RAPIDESIGNER tools make quick work of calculations frequently used in the design of data transmission line systems on printed circuit boards. Based on principles contained in the National's application note AN-905, the Transmission Line RAPIDESIGNER tool benefits from our many years of experience in designing and manufacturing a very wide range of interface products and from helping our valued customers obtain the most from their high-speed systems.
The following calculations can be made with the RAPIDESIGNER tool for both Microstrip and Stripline geometries:
- Characteristic Impedance (Zo)
- Intrinsic Delay
- Unterminated Stub Length
- Loaded Impedance
- Differential Impedance
- Propagation Delay
- Reflection Coefficient
- Co and Lo
- Reactance Frequency
Two versions of the popular RAPIDESIGNER tool are available while supplies last. The two RAPIDESIGNER tools differ in the diminisions supported; one is for METRIC units while the other supports ENGLISH units.
- RAPIDESIGNER tool, Metric Units, LIT# 633200-001
- RAPIDESIGNER tool, English Units, LIT# 633201-001
A full Operation and Applications Guide is provided in AN-905. Also included in the application note are the formulas for the calculations, accuracy information, example calculations, and other useful information. Order yours today!
The Serial Digital Video and Interface RAPIDESIGNER tool is the NEWEST transmission line tool and is available while supplies last. The Serial Digital RAPIDESIGNER tool makes quick work of calculations frequently used in designs using National's LMH0xx family of products in broadcast video and telecom applications.
