A printed circuit board includes: an insulating substrate, and a patterned conductive layer having a signal line and fixed on the insulating substrate, where signal lines on different planes of the patterned conductive layer are electrically connected to a via hole through a pad. An inner wall of the via hole is formed of a conductive bar and an insulating bar that penetrate the via hole; the pad is at an edge of the via hole and is connected to the conductive bar; the pad has an unclosed structure. In the printed circuit board according to the present invention, the size of the pad is significantly reduced by arranging the pad at partial edge of the via hole, thereby effectively improving a layout density of the patterned conductive layer, hence reducing the size of the printed circuit board, and satisfying the market demand for smaller electronic products.
