Chapter 5: Design of Transitions for High-Speed Signals
The magnitude of this excess capacitance (C) or inductance (L) can also be extracted from
the TDR waveform by integrating the normalized area of the transition’s TDR response.
The respective equations for capacitance and inductance are:
Equation 5-1
Equation 5-2
Figure 5-3 shows the integration of the normalized TDR area.
