Hello, If I have a pin with two 50 ohm lines leading in opposite directions from its land (let's say they are arbitrarily long so as to truly look like 50 ohm lines), what is the effective impedance that the pin sees? Thanks, Donald ___ time-nuts

Just for the record I meant pin as in the metal contact of a device, not a PIN diode. So I need the impedance the pin see's (that of the transmission line(s)) to be the same as the output impedance of the pin. Here's an extrapolation on the original question. If this is a high speed digital

Don, If it were a perfect world and the two 100 Ohm loads were perfect (no reactances), then you will have a complete transfer of power from the 50 Ohm source divided equally into the two 100 Ohm loads without reflections. BillWB6BNQ Don Otknow wrote: Just for the record I meant pin as in

Well actually there's another level here which is that some of the lines are bidirectional data lines - each device at the end of the lines will occasionally drive these. However one of the devices (lets call it device A) can request a wait from the center device via a separate line so it should
