Abstract :
The signal propagating along a microstrip line over a slot on the power plane will suffer from composite effects of reflected noise by a discontinuity in signal return path and ground bounce between power/ground planes. A new equivalent circuit model is proposed and simulations are performed for a three-layer structure to characterize ground bounce coupling
