I see that the equation to determine SRF of a capacitor or inductor is:
https://www.coilcraft.com/getmedia/8ef1bd18-d092-40e8-a3c8-929bec6adfc9/doc363_measuringsrf.pdf
But when I follow this simulated circuit shown on https://www.microwaves101.com/encyclopedias/self-resonant-frequency , the equation is the following for an inductor.
I see they mentioned they added a factor of 1000 so the equation works out. What I don’t understand is why the equation is way off from the SRF version.
Note: The Microwaves simulation in my simulator is close but still off. I get 1.7GHz SRF where they get 2.3GHz.
When I try to correct the simulation to
I get:
Anyone have any idea what I’m missing here?
