Abstract:
A printed circuit board includes an insulating board, a pair of differential vias, and a number of wiring layers. A pair of via holes extends through opposite surfaces of the insulating board. The differential vias correspond to the pair of via holes. Each differential via includes a metal plated barrel and two via capture pads. The plated barrel is plated on the inner surface of the respective via hole, and terminates at each of the two opposite surfaces of the insulating board. The via capture pads are formed on the opposite surfaces of the insulating board around the openings of the via hole, and are electrically connected to the plated barrel. The wiring layers are arranged in the insulating board, and each define a clearance hole surrounding all of the via capture pads.
Abstract:
A simulation system for producing equivalent circuits reads data corresponding to a tabular W element format in a storage device, and adds data of the tabular W element format file using interpolation algorithm. A frequency-dependent transmission matrix is transformed into an N-port network matrix describing electrical properties of a multi-input and multi-output network. An N-port network matrix is transformed into a S-parameter matrix. A range of frequency of a s-parameter is determined and numbers of pole-residue, times for recursion and durable maximum system errors in the equivalent circuit is also determined. A a vector fitting algorithm is performed and a rational function matrix composed with s-parameters is produced, to produce a general SPICE equivalent circuit based on the generated rational function matrix.

An output file, which comprises times and voltages of data points that represent an electrical signal, of an electronic circuit simulation software is loaded, and is read using the installed post-processing software. A time interval of outputs of the electrical signal is obtained by selecting an output type of the electrical signal. The worst bit combination of outputs of the electrical signal is analyzed according to the times, the voltage, and the time interval, and a composite electrical signal is generated according to the worst bit combination.

Abstract:
A circuit board includes a current balancing unit that receives a number of current values from ammeters. A minimum current value between the current values is determined by the current balancing unit. Resistance of one or more variable resistors of the current balancing unit is adjusted by the current balancing unit to make the current value from one or more the ammeters serially connected to the one or more the variable resistors to be substantially equal to the minimum current value.
