COVER STORY
Practical Design of Differential Vias
A scalable, topology-based equivalent circuit model can accurately match via behavior to a bandwidth well above the application bandwidth, typically above 10 GHz. A look at a very simple way of modeling a differential via and translating its geometry into an equivalent circuit model. 
by Eric Bogatin, Bert Simonovich and Yazi Cao
