Abstract :
The letter indicates the way in which the characteristic impedance of single and coupled microstrip can vary with strip thickness, and points out that, in many cases of current practical interest, in both computer-circuit and microwave technologies, such variation is too large to be ignored without giving rise to serious error. Some typical graphs are given to illustrate this.
