Differential Pair Transmission Lines and Signals

Differential signaling is at the heart of today’s high-speed digital systems, and this track shows you why. You’ll learn the principles of differential impedance, coupling, and mode conversion, along with how to properly terminate and simulate differential pairs. With a clear introduction to S-parameters and lossy line behavior, you’ll see how insertion and return loss, dielectric effects, and conductor losses impact performance. Hands-on labs guide you through simulations and measurements so you can apply these insights directly to your own designs.
