You know someone has mastered his craft when he can explain it to a beginner and the beginner understands it like a specialist... This is so great

Thank you for this instructive presentation on TDR. It is very refreshing old myths relating transmission line reflections are explained with with clear and simple examples.

This one is Part 1 of 6, where are the remaining parts?

What is the difference between a TDR and a couple of function generator + scope ? Rise time is much faster on TDR devices ? No multiple interconnection reflections ? TDR can deliver much more power thus drive very long capacitive cables ?

Truly shows what a genius this guy is. If one of his books turns out to be full of crap he can still sell it as fiction!

@35:14, you get offset less then 50ohm, less resistive, is it ?!, but in other test you get higher offset, higher resistive, is it ?

[方方-ry]

A stupid question: how many reflections happened at each time position on the waveform? Only one reflection or accumulate of multi reflection? Such as there is bounce at the point of discontinue, is the bounce caused by one reflection?

[paulpaulzadeh]

this means that on PCB, changing layer by via is not good if you want uniform 50 ohm impedance, is it ?!
