Construction #1

Lattice Diagrams

The lattice diagram is a tool for keeping track of the


voltage & current waves as they travel back & forth
along the transmission line:
The time axis runs down the page & is usually expressed in
terms of the propagation delay (td) of the transmission line.
The z- (distance) axis runs across the page and extends
from the source to the farthest load.
For convenience, the reflection coefficients at each
discontinuity are often placed at the top of the diagram.

To show the propagation of the signal:
Use a vector to show the travel of the signal along the line.
Use the initial wave and the reflection coefficients to
calculate the voltage amplitude for each successive reflected
wave

Construction #3
Track the signals at the discontinuities:
Recall from superposition that the total signal (V or I) at any
point on the network at a given time is the sum of all waves
that have reached that point since the last signal transition
(t=0).

Summary

Lattice Diagrams

Lattice diagrams provide a useful tool for


analyzing the voltage and current at points
along the interconnect circuit as a function of
time.
They track voltage and current wave components,
and reflections at discontinuities.

The voltage and current waveforms can be


easily constructed from the lattice diagrams.
Lattice diagrams are of limited use for
complex topologies.
