A printed circuit board (200) includes at least one via (280) defined therein, the via has an upper cap (220) formed on a top surface of the PCB, and a lower cap (240) formed on a bottom surface of the PCB. A conductive hole (290) is defined in the PCB having a plated sidewall (230) plated on its inner surface, and a first clearance hole (271) is defined in a first inner layer (260) of the PCB around the sidewall. A first transmission line (210) defined on the top surface of the PCB is coupled to the upper cap, a first void (273) extending from a boundary of the first clearance hole being disposed along the layout direction of the first transmission line.
