Piyhatt,

If the trace is wide relative to its height above the plane, the inductance is 
inversely proportional to the width. If the trace is narrow relative to its 
height above the plane, the inductance is inversely proportional to the log of 
the width.

Subject: [SI-LIST] Inductance of PCB trace over ground plane

Hi Si Gurus
I was wondering that is the inductance of PCB trace over a ground plane. Is 
inductance changes logarithmic with width or is inversely proportionally.
These sites shows formulas which say 
loghttp://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p9477&seqNum=9 
http://www.daycounter.com/Calculators/Microstrip-Inductor-Calculator.phtml
whereas this says inversely  
http://www.technick.net/public/code/cp_dpage.php?aiocp_dp=util_inductance_trace_g
  .
May be they take different assumption? what can somebody explain to me what is 
the assumption?Book i am reading shows derivation of this formula assuming 
distance from plane is much less than width of the trace which is simmillar to 
assumption mentioned in link with formula with log version.
ThanksPiyhatt
