A transmission line is any piece of wire connecting two components. Transmission lines have a CharacteristicImpedance measured by combining their unit length capacitace and unit length resistance. Thus, a Transmission Line has a CharacteristicImpedance irrespective of length. Common TransmissionLine types include: |

The CharacteristicImpedance of a TransmissionLine needs to be matched to the OutputImpedance of the driver and the InputImpedance of the load. |
