Which of the following is the correct way to describe a controlled impedance trace in PCB design?
AA trace with random width and spacing
BA trace designed with specific width and spacing to maintain constant impedance
CA trace that is thicker than all others
DA trace that is routed only on the top layer
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Define controlled impedance

    Controlled impedance means the trace width and spacing are designed to keep impedance steady.
  2. Step 2: Identify correct description

    The correct description is of a trace designed with specific width and spacing to maintain constant impedance.
  3. Final Answer:

    A trace designed with specific width and spacing to maintain constant impedance -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Controlled impedance = specific width and spacing [OK]
Quick Trick: Controlled impedance means fixed width and spacing [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Assuming random width controls impedance
  • Thinking thickness alone controls impedance
  • Believing layer choice controls impedance
