Parameter Definition
Notes:
1. Nominal trace width is determined by board physical characteristics and stack-up. This value should
be verified with the PWB manufacturer to achieve the desired Zo.
2. Nominal pair to pair spacing is determined by board physical characteristics and stack-up. This value
should be verified with the PWB manufacturer to achieve the desired Zdiff.
