Hello,
Due to my RF/MW background I am used to calculate with Linecalc tool (ADS) the necessary with of a transmission line in order to be 50ohms.
The problem is that ECAD department works with Altium. I ordered a PCB routing with lines at 50ohms for 200MHz.
[FR4, epsilon=4.2, h=1.4mm, t=0.35um, G=0.15mm]
My W calculated via Linecalc is 0.8mm and Altium impedance calculator gives a W of 0.6mm.
I am not an expert with Altium and need to know why is this discrepance due to.
Thank you very much in advance.
