Abstract :
This paper describes a fast analytical method which provides equivalent inductance and resistance of any simple loop realized on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). Furthermore, the current distribution over a conductor cross section is obtained. The results are compared both with 3D finite element software with shell elements, and to measurements
