    Abstract: A pre-drilled hole, providing a passageway between an upper and a lower surface of a printed circuit board layer, receives a passive component, for example a resistor or a capacitor. In one embodiment the component is cylindrical, with an electrically conductive contact point at each end. The hole diameter is approximately the same as the diameter of the cylindrical component. The hole is similar to a via in a printed circuit board, except that the hole is not plated through (such would cause an electrical short). Electrically conductive lines are provided to the openings of the hole on the upper and the lower surfaces of the PCB. The area of the exposed end of the cylindrical component and the termination of the conducting line is less than the area of a surface mounted component equivalent to the cylindrical component. In some embodiments the hole and inserted component are located directly below a pin pad for a surface mounted device, for example an integrated circuit, providing the equivalent of zero wire and line lengths with no net increase in printed circuit board area.

    Abstract: Printed circuit boards including voltage switchable dielectric materials (VSDM) are disclosed. The VSDMs are used to protect electronic components, arranged on or embedded in printed circuit boards, against electric discharges, such as electrostatic discharges or electric overstresses. During an overvoltage event, a VSDM layer shunts excess currents to ground, thereby preventing electronic components from destruction or damage.

    Abstract: A substrate device includes an embedded layer of VSD material (230) that overlays a conductive element or layer (240) to provide a ground. An electrode (210), connected to circuit elements that are to be protected, extends into the thickness of the substrate to make contact with the VSD layer. When the circuit elements are operated under normal voltages, the VSD layer is dielectric and not connected to ground. When a transient electrical event occurs on the circuit elements, the VSD layer switches instantly to a conductive state, so that the first electrode is connected to ground.

    Abstract: Various aspects provide for structures and devices to protect against spurious electrical events (e.g., electrostatic discharge). Some embodiments incorporate a voltage switchable dielectric material (VSDM) bridging a gap between two conductive pads. Normally insulating, the VSDM may conduct current from one pad to the other during a spurious electrical event (e.g,. shunting current to ground). Some aspects include gaps having a gap width that is greater than 50% of a spacing between electrical leads connected to the pads. Some devices include single layers of VSDM. Some devices include multiple layers of VSDM. Various devices may be designed to increase a ratio of active volume (of VSDM) to inactive volume.
