Abstract:
A printed circuit board includes a signal plane and a reference plane. The signal plane includes a pad, a passive element mounted on the pad, and a signal transmission line electrically connected to the passive element via the pad. The reference plane provides a return path for a signal transmitted through the passive element and the signal transmission line. A void is defined in the reference plane corresponding to the passive element, to increase a length of the return path. A length of a first axis, perpendicular to the signal transmission line, of the void satisfies a following equation: W 1 ≈ 8 Wpad + 10 T 0.8 Wtrace + T , wherein Wpad is a width of the pad, Wtrace is a width of the transmission line, T is the height of the pad.

An electrical interconnect between the stainless steel and conductive lead layers including an aperture only through the insulator layer and an electroplated conductive material interconnect extending between both the spring metal layer and the conductive lead layer.
Abstract:
A computer program for balancing power plane pin currents in a printed wiring board (PWB) provides for reduction in pin counts required for power plane (including ground plane) connections and/or reduction in requirements for connector current handling per pin. One or more slots is introduced in the metal layer implementing the power plane that alter the current distribution in the power plane. The per-pin current profile for connector pins connected to the power plane is equalized by tuning the length of the slot(s). The slots may be dashed or made internal to the power plane metal layer to avoid weakening the metal layer for laminated multi-layer PWBs and may be shaped around a connector end when the power plane pin allocation is not uniform at the connector ends. The resulting equalization reduces either pin count required for carrying the power plane current or reduces connector pin current requirements.

Abstract:
Manufacturing circuits with reference plane voids over vias with a strip segment interconnect permits routing critical signal paths over vias, while increasing via insertion capacitance only slightly. The transmission line reference plane defines voids above (or below) signal-bearing plated-through holes (PTHs) that pass through a rigid substrate core, so that the signals are not degraded by an impedance mismatch that would otherwise be caused by shunt capacitance from the top (or bottom) of the signal-bearing PTHs to the transmission line reference plane. In order to provide increased routing density, signal paths are routed over the voids, but disruption of the signal paths by the voids is prevented by including a conductive strip through the voids that reduces the coupling to the signal-bearing PTHs and maintains the impedance of the signal path conductor.
