Abstract :
The proximity effects between microstrip lines and ground on monolithic microwave integrated circuits are estimated by using the rectangular boundary division method. The attenuation constant is calculated based on a new form of the incremental inductance rule. Micro-coplanar strip (MSC) lines are then proposed to avoid the proximity effects. Some results of structural design parameters of MCS lines are expressed in simple polynomial formulas for CAD.
