CLEARANCE HOLE SIZE ADJUSTMENT FOR IMPEDANCE CONTROL IN MULTILAYER ELECTRONIC PACKAGING AND PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS

摘要

The present invention provides a technique for adjusting the size of clearance holes for impedance control in multilayer electronic packaging and printed circuit boards. The method comprises: providing parameters for a structure having a clearance hole and at least one via passing through the clearance hole; calculating a characteristic impedance for the at least one via; and adjusting at least a size of the clearance hole until the characteristic impedance for the at least one via is approximately equal to a desired characteristic impedance.
