    Abstract: In one or more embodiments, a circuit board may include a trace pair and a serpentine region of the trace pair, which may include: a first subregion in which the first trace includes a first portion that has a third width and a first length and in which the second trace includes a second portion, at least substantially parallel to the first portion, that has a fourth width, greater than the second width, and a second length; and a second subregion, adjacent to the first subregion, in which the first trace includes a third portion that has the third width and a third length and in which the second trace includes a third portion that has the fourth width and a third length, different from the second length.

    Abstract: A differential trace pair system includes a board including a board structure having a first, a second, a third, and a fourth board structure member, wherein a distance between the first and the third board structure members is longer than a distance between the second and the fourth board structure members. The differential trace pair system further includes a differential trace pair that includes a first differential trace extending between the first and the third board structure members and a second differential trace extending between the second and the fourth board structure members. The second differential trace having a serpentine structure that includes a first portion that continuously transitions away from the first differential trace and a second portion that is contiguous with the first portion, the second portion continuously transitions towards the first differential trace.

    Abstract: Traces on a PCB can be spaced closer together than in conventional layouts, which previously required the pair-to-pair spacing for the high-speed differential stripline signals to be at least 5H if the signals are originating from the same source and 7H when the signals on two pairs of transmission lines in the traces originate from different sources. Traces may be spaced closer together when, for example, a ratio of the core height to the prepreg height of the printed circuit board is approximately equal to one. Traces may be spaced closer together when, for example, a ratio of the trace spacing distance to the core height distance is less than approximately one. By implementing one or both of these design rules, printed circuit board layouts can be designed, and printed circuit boards manufactured from those designs, that have an intra-group spacing between the first pair and the second pair measured at a point at which the first pair is closest to the second pair of less than approximately five times the prepreg height (the limit for previous printed circuit board designs).

    Abstract: A circuit board pad mounting orientation system includes a board. A signal transmission line is included on the board. A plurality of connector pads are positioned on the board. At least one connector pad receives the signal transmission line adjacent a first end of that connector pad. At least one connector pad includes a second end that provides a reduction in a width of that connector pad to indicate a mounting orientation for coupling to the connector pad that receives the signal transmission line. In a specific example, a first connector pad receives the signal transmission line, includes the first end, and includes the second end that is opposite the first connector pad from the first end and that provides the reduction in the width of the first connector pad to indicate the mounting orientation for coupling to the first connector pad.

    Abstract: A circuit board pad resonance control system includes a board. A signal transmission line is included on the board. A plurality of connector pads are positioned on the board. A first connector pad receives the signal transmission line adjacent a first end of that connector pad. The first connector pad includes a mounting surface that mounts directly to a coupling element that is configured to couple a subsystem to the board, and reduces a resonance that is produced by an open portion of a signal transmission path that is created when the coupling element is directly mounted to the mounting surface of the first connector pad in a first orientation. In a specific example, the mounting surface may include a plurality of protrusions, a plated surface, and/or a mask that reduces the conductivity of the connector pad which reduces signal integrity issues due to resonance.
