Crosstalk Between PCB Traces – Time and Frequency Domain Measurements, Part 2

In this article, we investigate the impact of a guard trace on crosstalk reduction and present measurements taken with the latest‑generation PCB, both in time and frequency domains.

EMC Concepts Explained

Crosstalk between PCB Traces – Time and Frequency Domain Measurements, Part 1

This article is the first of a two-article series devoted to the topic of crosstalk between PCB traces. In Part 1 of the series, we vary circuit topology, i.e., the distance between traces and the distance to the ground plane.
