Re: Choice of DC blocking capacitors in Microstrip Design



Now THAT's clever.

One thing I've done is make a z-shaped slit in a fairly wide trace

And bridge it with a bunch of caps, two physically small ones on the
vertical parts of the slits and several bigger ones, like tantalums
even, on the long horizontal part. Seems to work well for a really
wideband DC block. If the caps aren't too tall, the
lumped-C-to-the-universe effect seems small.
