    Abstract: An air duct formed from an electromagnetic wave absorber in the form of a sheet is disclosed. The sheet can be bent into a duct or scored, and folded at the score lines to bring the ends of the sheet into proximity. The ends can then be joined by adhesive, welding, or mechanical fasters. The air ducts disclosed herein provide dual functions of providing ventilation for electronic components in an electronic module, while at the same time, reducing electromagnetic interference (EMI). One or more air ducts, of the same or different dimensions, shapes, volumes can be combined with electronic modules, such as a server, to provide both ventilation and EMI suppression to various components within the electronic module.

    Abstract: A high speed circuit and a method for fabricating the same is disclosed. The high speed circuit has a printed circuit board. A pair of first and second differential traces are formed on a first surface of the printed circuit board. The differential traces carry an electrical signal. A partial loop extends through the printed circuit board. The partial loop includes first and second end slots under the first and second differential traces. The partial loop includes a pair of side slots substantially parallel to the differential traces. An anchor member connects the printed circuit board to an island formed by the first and second end slots and side slots. The anchor member forms a gap in one of the end slots or side slots. The length of the side slots and the length of the gap is selected to reduce a target common mode frequency from the electrical signal.

    Abstract: A differential trace structure reducing the magnitude of low frequency attenuation is disclosed. The trace structure is formed on a printed circuit board. A pair of differential traces connects a signal receiver and a signal transmitter. A passive equalizer has a first shunt coupled to one of the pair of differential traces; and a second shunt coupled to the other one of the pair of differential traces. The passive equalizer has an inductor and a resistor coupled in series to the shunts. For low frequency signals, the passive equalizer behaves as a shunt resistance to the pair of differential traces.

    Abstract: A connector assembly is disclosed to reduce discontinuity impedance between golden finger connectors and components on a circuit board. The assembly includes a circuit board including a connector edge. A plurality of connectors is formed on the connector edge on a first surface of the circuit board. A ground plane is formed on part of the circuit board on a second opposite surface of the first surface. The ground plane leaves the second opposite surface under the connector edge exposed. A ground loop is formed on the second opposite surface under at least two of the plurality of connectors.
