The proposed planar array of collinear printed dipoles is composed of a series of sections of microstrip line with their top and bottom conductors transposed at each junction. Without any alteration to the microstrip radiator, the bandwidth of the proposed antenna is broadened by adopting a gap in the endfire direction between two adjacent elements. By tuning the width of the gap, good impedance matching can be obtained with a VSWR 2:1 (S11< −10dB) impedance bandwidth of 380 MHz (15.8%), covering the band range of WLAN (2.40–2.48GHz). The measured gain in the require band is higher than 6.5 dBi. The proposed antenna shows the merits of simple structure and good impedance matching, which are important for practical applications.","PeriodicalId":446239,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Electrical Design of Advanced Packaging and Systems Symposium (EDAPS)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117035875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional criteria of PDN impedance is a target impedance with a constant value over wide frequency range. However, the constant target impedance is not suitable for the high-speed systems, such as DDR-3 memory systems, because it is not cost effective to maintain PDN impedance as low as possible, especially in high frequency range. Furthermore, clock frequencies of modern LSIs already exceed the peak frequency of PDN impedance. In this paper, frequency spectrum of the power supply switching current of the ASIC driver has been used to define the target impedance in the DDR3 memory system. Frequency dependent target impedance has been obtained from the switching current spectrum. Degradation of signal integrity, such as eye height and jitter due to anti-resonance peaks have been checked by comparing the frequency dependent target impedance of DDR3 system.","PeriodicalId":446239,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Electrical Design of Advanced Packaging and Systems Symposium (EDAPS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129045777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
