[SI-LIST] Re: Transmission line capacitance

Two handy transmission line formulas:
C = td/Z
L = td X Z

td is the propagation time
Z is the characteristic impedance

Example: 1 cm of line, Z = 100 ohms, time is 67 ps (effective relative
dielectric constant is 4)

C = 67ps/100 ohms = 670 fF
L = 67ps X 100 ohms = 6.7 nH
