Notes:
A method for analysing the electrical effect of a set of conducting strips is presented. This method is applied to modelling the electrical behaviour of conducting tracks on a printed circuit board (PCB). Unlike most other published work, this analysis is not restricted to the case where the tracks are parallel. The problem is formulated in terms of an admittance matrix. A boundary element method incorporating image theory is used to produce a system of linear equations. These are solved to yield the required admittance matrix, which can then be incorporated into a standard circuit analysis package. Comparisons between measured and predicted circuit performance for a complex layout show close agreement up to at least 1 GHz.
