question microstrip & cpw - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

I've heard people refer to microstrip on a ckt that clearly has a gnd plane on the same plane as the conductor. Is there a rule of thumb gap distance from the conductor that differentiates microstrip vs cpw properties?
