Much has been written about terminating PCB traces in their characteristic impedance, to avoid signal reflections. However, it may not be clear when transmission line techniques are appropriate. A good guideline to determine when the transmission line approach is necessary for logic signals is to terminate the transmission line in its characteristic impedance when the one-way propagation delay of the PCB track is equal to or greater than one-half the applied signal rise/fall time (whichever edge is faster). This tutorial goes over how to design controlled impedance transmission line traces on PCB's. Multiple configurations are discussed.
