my application is simple. I have few passive components and and
amplifier on a PCB board. I would like to see how the currents flowing
there sets up the field and influence each other. Passive components
are inductor, capacitor and an op amp. Frequency range of interest is
50kHz to 100MHz..its not that high frequency.

Doesn't matter if the chipset has it if the BIOS doesn't dumbass.

How little you know about modular bios.

Find a different board with the same set of chips and you
don't even have to use the same bios! There are also tools
to reenable hidden features. They do not write a custom
bios for every board that has only minor changes, they just
add or subtract modules and hide features.

What you are failing to grasp is why the OP suspected the
mod was possible, because he, and I, and others, have
already seen and done such things in the past.

To say the least. Both Award and Phoenix bioses were modular by the
late 1970s. I used Phoenix in a knock off product back then.
 
So far, i am forced to use the SVGA driver which Win98SE does not
like either, and restore 800x600 16 colors which is the best i have been
able to do so far.
Now, the motherboard has its own video chip, disabled in the BIOS so
that the video card can work.
But it seems that Nvidia drivers do not see the GeForce 8400GS
daughter board, and so stops looking when it sees the motherboard chip
(unknown type so far).
The NV8269 driver does support the GeForce board in Win88SE, but does
not see it and if forced, does not give anything better than 640x480 16
colors (ugh!).
By using an old DOS version of AMIDIAG i found that VESA mode 103
(600x800 256 colors) *is* supported.
But the universal driver from Anapa Corp, giving VBE Miniport SVGA
etc types of support *also* does not give anything better than 640x480
16 colors (ugh!).
So, i am back to the WinDoze SVGA driver.
Now, there is UNIVBE.DRV which i could try, but how does one tell the
driver to "default" to mode 103?
Or do i continue to bumble along, load it "plain" and HexSpearmint?
*
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

So are you calling republicans socialists now too? Because the people that

No surprise. It seems Kony is the only one who thinks multilayer

It was invented in World War II to get rid of the cable capacitance in

Hi gang,
I'm trying to find out why people use CPWs on PCBs.
I'm looking into improving the rise-time performance of a PCB. It is
currently using microstrip on 6.6mils of Rogers 4450B, with a ground
plane right underneath.
We are launching a 50ps step and getting 150ps out at the other end.
The path is about 5 inches long, an 11 mils trace with a nominal
impedance of 50ohms.
The test report from the PCB shop shows we are within 5% of 50ohms.
This is measured, not calculated.
The 150ps figure comes from the lab. Our early simulations showed
there would be rise-time degradation, but not at this level.
So I'm trying to educate myself on CPWs, I'm reading Microwave
Engineering by Pozar.

But I'd like a pre-digested answer like: it makes no difference, it
helps in the high frequencies, your 11mil traces are too thin, etc...
TIA

For what it is worth, strip-line - a track routed over ground-plane -
is intrinsically dispersive. Microstrip - a track routed on an inner
layer between two ground planes - is not.

--
Bill Sloman, Nijmegen- Hide quoted text -

- Show quoted text -

I think you have your terms backwards there. I use microstrip all the
time (a track routed over the groundplane , but exposed). You can
combine lumped elements to the circuits. All power transistors that I
have used are matched into microstrip circuits.

It is a legitimate , bonified, transmission line, like a coax or
strip line.

He's right that microstrip is dispersive, but that's not the major
risetime-loss contributor in the op's situation. On a given board
stackup, stripline is generally lossier... the trace will be skinnier,
the dielectric layers thinner, and any pcb dielectric is lossier than
air. Not to mention the vias.

Why is microstrip dispersive, and how much? (excluding poor dielectrics with

The situation isn't so simple. The power factor sense of a CFL depends
on the type of ballast it has. An electromagnetic ballast introduces a
lagging power factor, which is a problem, but an electronic ballast
usually has a leading power factor.

That depends a lot on the sort of ballast. The two tube ones often
are near unity power factor.

You can still find some fixtures that

the replacement ballasts.
