A DEVICE INTERFACE BOARD WITH CAVITY BACK FOR VERY HIGH FREQUENCY APPLICATIONS

摘要

In one embodiment, a device interface board is provided which includes a printed circuit board with a DUT interface structure, such as socket, associated with a DUT side of the printed circuit board. A high frequency connector and electronic component are mounted in a cavity formed in a back side of the printed circuit board. A signal via through the printed circuit board couples the high frequency connector and electronic component with the DUT interface structure. An encapsulating structure may be provided, which covers the cavity while allowing a cable to connect to the high frequency connector.
