Stackup Impedance Calculator

8 Layer Stackup

Please modify the variables far and then click on the 'Calculate' button. The trace impedance's will then be calculated.

Note: All values need to be filled to get the desired result.
 1. All dimensions are in MIL (thousands of an inch).

2. For microstrip traces (0.1< W/H < 4.0; 1 < εr < 16 )

    where W = width of the trace

          H = height of the dielectric

          εr = Dielectric constant

 

 3. The Dielectric Constant of FR4 material may vary by as much as 20% (4.2 to 5.2).
 4. The overall Dielectric Thickness (Cu to Cu) should total 62 MIL nominally.
 5. Variables unavailable for modification have no significant effect on the impedance of the traces.
