What Is the Difference Between Microstrip and Stripline in PCBs?

PCBs typically use two types of transmission lines: microstrips and striplines. Each of the transmission lines consists of a signal trace and a reference plane(s). Based on the transmission line geometry, it is essential to assume the signal trace and the reference plane as one unit.
