Digital Signals and Grounded Coplanar Waveguides

Can you put a digital signal through a grounded coplanar waveguide? The short answer is yes. The longer answer is it all depends on how you design the coplanar waveguide. Tech Consultant Zach Peterson tells you what you need to know about coplanar waveguides, their structure, and more in this video. 0:00 Intro 0:38 The Structure of a Coplanar Waveguide 7:08 Exploring the IEEE Paper 12:08 Manufacturing Considerations IEEE Paper "Impact of ground via placement in grounded coplanar waveguide interconnects." https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/ielaam/5503870/7386538/7365442-aam.pdf For more PCB Routing videos, click here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3aaAq2OJU5HTYlFDSMgokP6Pl7_RL3Oz For more PCB Design for Intermediate Users videos, click here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3aaAq2OJU5F2sXYTuPcAHiMrK3CQLK_0 For more Tech Consultant Zach Peterson videos, click here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3aaAq2OJU5F4hyKgGyHKOfSIUU_hY_yv 👉 Altium Live Question: Digital Signals in a Grounded Coplanar Waveguide: https://resources.altium.com/p/altium-live-question-digital-signals-grounded-coplanar-waveguide?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=yt-sponsor&utm_content=altium-academy 👉 Harness mmWave Routing with a Mode-Selective Transmission Line: https://resources.altium.com/p/harness-mmwave-routing-mode-selective-transmission-line?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=yt-sponsor&utm_content=altium-academy 👉 Coplanar Line with No Ground Plane: https://youtu.be/kRT72eM9bn4 👉 Design PCBs with a Free Trial of Altium Designer Here: http://altium.com/yt/altium-academy Don't forget to follow us on social to stay up-to-date on the latest Altium Academy content. 👉 Follow Altium on Twitter: https://twitter.com/altium 👉 Follow Altium on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/altium/ 👉 Follow Altium on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AltiumOfficial/ 👉 Ready to try the industry's best-in-class design experience yourself?
