The short answer is this:
At very low frequencies, the voltage at one end of the trace is the same as=
 the voltage at the other end of the trace at any instant in time.

However, at very high frequencies, the voltage at one end of the trace can=
 be very different from the voltage at the other end of the trace at any=
 instant in time.

This variation in voltage on a single piece of metal at the same instant in=
 time causes "Transmission Line Effects". When this happens, you must leave=
 simple AC Circuit Analysis and enter into Electromagnetic Field Theory=
 because now the physical geometry of the circuit and the charateristics of=
 the board material become important.

Try this web site. Lots of high frequency design analysis info.

hi all ,
here are some of my simple questions, may u might help me.
1. why wires and printed circuit boards require special consideration when=
 used at RF frequencies.

2. what are these considerations, pdf or links  may help me.
