Abstract :
A full-wave electromagnetic analysis using the moment method was performed on a set of meander lines located in a circuit board to determine the effect of meander pitch on delay. Detailed sensitivity studies performed on gridding, skin-effect models, and frequency content confirm the accuracy of these results
