    \text{Microstrip Impedance } Z_o = \left( \frac{87}{\sqrt{(\text{er}+1.41)}} \right) \cdot \ln \left( \frac{5.98 \cdot h}{(0.8 \cdot w)+t} \right)
    T_{pd} = 3.333 \cdot \sqrt{(0.475 \cdot \text{er})+0.67} \cdot \text{dimension}
    C = \frac{T_{pd}}{Z_o}
    L = \frac{T_{pd} \cdot Z_o}{1000}
    D_c = \frac{17.2}{w \cdot t \cdot \text{dimension}^2} \cdot 1000

    where

    • Zo = Single Ended Impedance
    • er = Relative dielectric constant
    • h = Trace width
    • w = Trace height
    • t = Trace thickness
    • Tpd = Propagation Delay
    • C = Capacitance
    • L = Inductance
    • Dc = Resistance
    • If the dimension unit is mm then dimension=1
    • If the dimension unit is mils then the dimension is 0.0254
