Introduction

Coplanar traces are common in printed circuit boards. Coplanar traces where one trace is the signal and the other trace is the return path apply to this inductance calculator.

Wire Loop Inductance Description

The inductance of the coplanar trace calculation requires 4 variables:

  • W - Trace Width
  • S - Trace Seperation
  • L - Trace Length
  • μr - relative Permeability

This structure requires that these spacings be uniform down the entire length of the trace.
