5 RF PCB Layout Design Guide
For user PCB, the characteristic impedance of all RF signal traces should be within 50Ω. In general, the
impedance of the RF signal trace is determined by the dielectric constant of the material, the trace width
(W), the ground clearance (S) and the height of the reference ground plane (H). The control of the
characteristic impedance of the PCB usually in two ways: microstrip trace and coplanar waveguide. To
illustrate the design principles, the following figures show the structural designs of microstrip trace and
coplanar waveguide when the impedance cable is at 50Ω.
