| 20210410273 | Hybrid Boards with Embedded Planes - The present disclosure is directed to a hybrid dielectric interconnect stack for a printed circuit board having a first dielectric layer with a first dielectric constant and a first dielectric loss tangent positioned over an intermediate layer, which includes a first dielectric sublayer with a first sublayer dielectric constant and a first sublayer dielectric loss tangent, an embedded conductive layer, and a second dielectric sublayer with a second sublayer dielectric constant and a second sublayer dielectric loss tangent, in which the embedded conductive layer is positioned between the first and second dielectric sublayers, and a second dielectric layer with a second dielectric constant and a second dielectric loss tangent, in which the intermediate layer is positioned between the first and second dielectric layers. | 2021-12-30 |
| 20210410274 | SYSTEMS FOR SHIELDING BENT SIGNAL LINES - Systems for shielding bent signal lines provide ways to couple different antenna arrays for radio frequency (RF) integrated circuits (ICs) (RFICs) associated therewith where the antenna arrays are oriented in different directions. Because the antenna arrays are oriented in different directions, the antenna structures containing the antennas may be arranged in different planes, and signal lines extending therebetween may include a bend. To prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) or electromagnetic crosstalk (EMC) from negatively impacting signals on the signal lines, the signal lines may be shielded. The shields may further include vias connecting the mesh ground planes and positioned exteriorly of the signal lines. The density of the vias may be varied to provide a desired rigidity in planes containing the antenna arrays while providing a desired flexibility at a desired bending location in the signal lines to help bending process accuracy. | 2021-12-30 |
