摘要:
The present invention provides a PWB for attaching electrical components thereto. One aspect of the PWB includes multiple PWB insulating layers having conductive traces therebetween. The PWB has an interconnect opening located in the multiple PWB insulating layers that intersect at least a portion of the conductive traces. The interconnect opening has ledges therein, wherein each of the ledges separates a first group of the conductive traces from a second group of the conductive traces. The present invention also provides a method of making the PWB and also provides a power converter implementing the edge plate interconnects.

The present invention provides a PWB for attaching electrical components thereto. The PWB includes a stack of insulating layers, conductive layers located between the insulating layers, wherein the conductive layers terminate at an edge of the PWB, and an edge plate interconnect located on the edge. The edge plate interconnect is free of a complementary via and contacts and electrically interconnects the conductive layers. The present invention also provides a method of making the PWB and also provides a power converter implementing the edge plate interconnects.
