Hi Friends,
  =20
  Whenever we refer to SI books or application notes, the impedance of
the transmission line is mentioned as 50-ohms or 60-ohms.  What is the
speciffic reason behind this value? why can't it be something different
than this? OR Why this 50-ohms conceptualized from the driver's
perspective? (evolution of transmission line theory for Digital Design)
  Please flood me some info on this.

  Regards,
  Sam
