Stripline Capacitance
Stripline Capacitance Model
Capacitance between the center conductor and ground planes is:
Units: Farads
Description
The capacitance calculated using this tool is the capacitance between a flat conductor and two equidistant ground planes.
Assumptions and Limitations
Dimensions are in meters.
Ground planes are assumed to be perfectly conducting and of infinite extent.
Conductor is assumed to have zero thickness and to be uniformly spaced between the ground planes.
Conductor and ground planes are assumed to be separated by a homogeneous medium having permittivity and permeability
.
Constants
Permeability of free space: H/m
Permittivity of air: F/m
Speed of light in a vacuum: m/s
