Abstract

See full text

A method and system for reducing via hole parasitic effects on PCB transmission channels. In order to reduce the effects of excess via capacitance in PCB structures, PCB via modeling accuracy for high speed serial data transmissions is improved by utilizing lower permittivity reinforcement and z-axis conducting methods. A method to accomplish this includes creating a channel within the circuit board to accommodate a via hole, filling the created channel with a predetermined amount of dielectric material, forming the via hole, and electrically coupling the top layer of the structure to at least an inner signal substrate layer of the structure.
