Abstract:
A data processing circuit has four signal conductors between a driver and a receiver, and first and second, mutually conducting shield planes. First and second signal conductors form a symmetrical stack in a column between the first and the second plane. Third and fourth signal conductors are arranged substantially midway between the first and the second plane, on mutually opposite sides of the stack. The first, second, third and fourth signal conductors have respective widths so that respective transmission line impedances of transmission lines between each particular one of the first, second, third and fourth conductors and the first and second planes are substantially mutually equal.
Abstract:
A capacitor structure with a cross-coupling design is provided. In the capacitor structure, conductive lines or electrode plates are coupled together by cross coupling an electrode above or below or aside the other electrode. By cross coupling and fewer vias, the largest capacitance value can be obtained within a minimum area. The capacitor structure provided can also be applied to a high-frequency high-speed module or system to enhance noise inhibition capability of a capacitive substrate.
Abstract:
Circuit boards and methods for their manufacture are disclosed. The circuit boards carry high-speed signals using conductors formed to include lengthwise channels. The channels increase the surface area of the conductors, and therefore enhance the ability of the conductors to carry high-speed signals. In at least some embodiments, a discontinuity also exists between the dielectric constant within the channels and just outside the channels, which is believed to reduce signal loss into the dielectric material.

A transition circuit board for transitioning a cable to a connector is provided. A circuit board has an outer surface with a circuit trace, ground plane and ground link provided thereon. A cable pad and a contact pad are provided at opposite ends of the circuit trace. The ground link is electrically common with the ground plane and is located adjacent to, and separated by a space from, the circuit trace. An insulating coating is provided over at least part of the circuit trace, the ground plane and the outer surface of the circuit board. The insulating coating has a mask aperture there-through exposing an uncoated portion of the circuit trace and the ground link. A conductive jumper material is provided on the uncoated portion of the circuit trace and the ground link to electrically join the circuit trace with the ground plane.
Abstract:
A layout of a circuit board includes a first signal layer, a second signal layer, and a third signal layer. The first signal layer has a transmission line. The second signal layer is stacked below the first signal layer, and has an opening. The third signal layer is stacked below the first and second signal layers with the second signal layer sandwiched between the first and third signal layers. The third signal layer is electrically connected to the second signal layer, and both of the second and third signal layers are ground layers or power layers. An orthogonal projection of a segment of the transmission line on the third signal layer is overlapped with that of the opening on the third signal layer. Therefore, an equivalent impedance of the segment of the transmission line referring to the second and third signal layers can be increased or decreased.
Abstract:
Embedded passive device structure and its manufacturing method for mainly embedding the passive device structure in the printed circuit board are presented. In this structure, both the source electrode and the ground electrode of the passive device belong to the same level, and includes several source branches and several ground branches that are formed vertically on the inside of the dielectric layer of the circuit board which are connected, respectively, to avoid the conducting between the source electrode and the ground electrode during lamination. When it is in the form of the capacitor structure, through the use of the ultra-fine wiring technique, these source branches and ground branches are separated by a small gap between each other. Therefore, the side face area and quantities of the source branches and ground branches are both increased.
