FAQ

What is the Characteristic Impedance?
Characteristic Impedance is a measure of its opposition to the flow of electrical signals. It is defined as the ratio of the voltage to the current in a transmission line and is expressed in ohms. Characteristic Impedance is usually measured using the Ohm for Electric Resistance. Note that the value of Characteristic Impedance is always positive.
Can the Characteristic Impedance be negative?
No, the Characteristic Impedance, measured in Electric Resistance cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Characteristic Impedance?
Characteristic Impedance is usually measured using the Ohm[Ω] for Electric Resistance. Megohm[Ω], Microhm[Ω], Volt per Ampere[Ω] are the few other units in which Characteristic Impedance can be measured.
