The big thing to worry about is the change in impedance when you go from tight to loose or the reverse. Any good 2D field solver will allow you to quantify that. -----Original Message----- From: Marc-André Filion Sent: Friday, February 01, 2013 2:35 PM To: SI-LIST mailing list Subject: [SI-LIST] Loose coupling vs tight at the same time Hi, We’re having a discussion here and I would like to know your thought about it. How bad is it to transition from tight coupling diff signal to loose coupling signal and vice-versa. We have a case here where we pass-thru a pin field and we reduce the coupling from loose to tight for 2”and get back to loose after. I’m not sure that it’s a good approach. What’s your idea on this?
