Introduction
In this column, Yuzo Usui, the author of "All About Distributed Constant Circuits for Board Designers", provides useful information for circuit designers and board designers, such as signal integrity and power supply. I will explain it in an easy-to-understand manner.
I will start from the basics of the basics, and will continue to serialize themes that others can not ask now, and themes of a slightly advanced level. Even those who already know it can read it as a review, so please take a look.

Frequency response of distributed constant circuit
Figure 1 shows the expression for the frequency response of a distributed constant circuit.
To find the far-end voltage V2, it is convenient to use a cascade.
