• Both the C2 and C3 placements are between the first and second via locations
along the main microstrip line leading from the FP31QF device. Further
descriptions are shown in the diagram on the left.
• The via hole spacing along the main microstrip line is .040”.
• The distance from the edge of the FP31QF to the closer edge of L3 is .305”.
• The transmission line lengths shown in the schematic are from the FP31QF
device edge to the component edge.
