Abstract:
A circuitry arrangement includes several electronic parts mounted to a circuit board, at least one conductor section extending between the electronic parts within a first conductor layer, and a closed conductor loop comprising at least one loop section running in parallel to the at least one conductor section within a second conductor layer neighboring the first conductor layer. The closed conductor loop is configured to reduce a tendency towards oscillations of a current flowing through the conductor section in operation of the circuitry arrangement. The conductor loop is closed via at least one electronic component mounted to an outer surface of the circuit board.

The laminated-inductor forming portion of the substrate has multiple inductor patterns formed on the first insulation layers and multiple via conductors connecting the inductor patterns through the first insulation layers, and the inductor patterns include an uppermost inductor pattern formed between the second insulation layer and the first insulation layers such that the uppermost inductor pattern has a distance of 100 μm or more from the planar conductor.
Abstract:
A filter circuit 103 includes capacitor elements 121 and 122. The capacitor element 121 returns a common mode current included in a signal output from, a signal output terminal 111 of a semiconductor element 102, to a ground terminal 113 of the semiconductor element 102. The capacitor element 122 returns a common mode current included in a signal output from a signal output terminal 112 of the semiconductor element 102, to the ground terminal 113 of the Semiconductor element 102. The capacitor elements 121 and 122 are arranged such that the mutual inductance between a parasitic inductance of the capacitor element 121 and a parasitic inductance of the capacitor element 122 for the common mode currents is a negative value. Accordingly, the effective inductances of the first and second capacitor elements for the common mode currents are reduced, which suppresses radiation noise.

Abstract:
A circuit board includes layers, a pair of vias filled with a conductive material and extending through the layers, first and second pairs of conductive signal paths, and holes extending at least partially through the layers and located between the pair of vias. The first pair of conductive paths is connected to the pair of vias within a first layer; the second pair of conductive paths is connected to the pair of vias within a second layer. The pair of vias has a pair of via stubs defined between the second layer and a bottom layer. A differential signal is to be transmitted between the first and second pairs of conductive signal paths via the pair of vias. The holes have a lower dielectric constant than the layers to increase a resonant frequency of the pair of via stubs beyond the frequency of the differential signal.

Abstract:
A complementary mirror image embedded planar resistor architecture is provided. In the architecture, a complementary hollow structure is formed on a ground plane or an electrode plane to minimize the parasitic resistance, so as to efficiently enhance the application frequency. In addition, in some cases, some signal transmission lines pass through the position below the embedded planar resistor, and if there is no shield at all, serious interference or cross talk phenomenon occurs. Therefore, the complementary hollow structure of the ground plane, the electrode plane, or a power layer adjacent to the embedded planar resistor is designed to be a mesh structure, so as to reduce the interference or cross talk phenomenon. In this manner, the whole resistor structure has preferable high frequency electrical characteristic in the circuit.

A signal current wiring line is configured to carry a signal current from a first circuit block to a second circuit block. A return current wiring line is configured to carry a return current from the second circuit block to the first circuit block. The signal current wiring line and the return current wiring line are stacked with an offset in the width direction so as to form a region between the surface of the casing on the second wiring line side and the signal current wiring line where the signal current wiring line faces the surface of the casing on the second wiring line side without the return current wiring line intervening between them.
