Hi! I had a question as to how should the impedance be calculated for a balanced pair over no copper area. Also, how to estimate the crosstalk for balanced signals over non-copper area. In case of T1/E1/E3 the Rx signals are very weak any any coupling of noise will introduce BER so as a rule of thumb I have kept the separation between Tx and Rx lines 3 times the spacing between the +/-of balanced pair. Is this sufficient. Is there any formula to calculate this crosstalk value? Thanks in advance Bob __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!
