Methods of noise coupling in high speed thick film circuits has been investigated. Parasitic coupling parameters have been experimentally determined for a variety of single and multilayer thick film layouts. In addition, the severity of the problem has been studied by measuring coupled noise induced on carefully constructed test cards. Curves are presented as an aid for predicting noise levels as a function of conductor spacing and signal edge speed. The measurements are discussed quantitatively and guidelines for the design of high speed thick film circuits are summarized.Type
