Finally the explanation I was looking for!! Complete and concise, giving the physics background, thanks a lot!!

[MrHeatification]

awesome content please dont stop making these videos

strip lines are awesome in this context of FEXT.😮

So for me, this is once again a case of "At analog audio frequencies, you pretty much don't have anything to worry about." I've heard of rare cases where telephone calls were accidentally coupled onto adjacent lines, but this was in the Transatlantic trunk.

Very helpful as always, thanks Altium and Zach for these videos!

[werderden]

Really well explained and educational as always. Looking forward to the crosstalk tutorial followups!

The explanation of cancelling FEXT in strip line is unclear to me. The inductive coupling depends solely on the trace geometry, while the capacitive coupling depends on the geometry and dk. From experience we know, that the inductive coupling slightly prevails. Perhaps placing both aggressor and victim as strip lines increases mutual capacitive coupling thus reducing the FEXT.

Great insight. Thanks for the reference as well!

How can we calculate the crosstalk between a plane and a trace?

hello sir, are you giving private courses?
