The printed circuit board includes a path configured for the transportation of moisture therein. | 2015-09-03 |
20150250058 | INTEGRATED INTERPOSER WITH EMBEDDED ACTIVE DEVICES - An integrated interposer between a first component and a second component includes a substrate. The substrate may have thermal and/or mechanical properties with values lying between the thermal and/or mechanical properties of the first component and the second component. Active devices are disposed on a first surface of the substrate. A contact layer is coupled to the active devices and configured to couple at least the first component and a third component to the integrated interposer. At least one through via(s) is coupled to the contact layer and extends through the substrate to a second surface of the substrate. An interconnect layer is disposed on the second surface of the substrate and coupled to the at least one through via(s). The interconnect layer is configured to couple the second component to the integrated interposer. | 2015-09-03 |

20150250060 | METHOD FOR FORMING A CIRCUIT BOARD VIA STRUCTURE FOR HIGH SPEED SIGNALING - One embodiment of the invention comprises an improved method for making a via structure for use in a printed circuit board (PCB). The via allows for the passage of a signal from one signal plane to another in the PCB, and in so doing transgresses the power and ground planes between the signal plane. To minimize EM disturbance between the power and ground planes, signal loss due to signal return current, and via-to-via coupling, the via is shielded within two concentric cylinders, each coupled to one of the power and ground planes. | 2015-09-03 |
