Vertical launch impedance matched through-hole vias to ensure proper impedance matching is maintained after a printed circuit board connector is attached to a printed circuit board. A conductive via having a center aperture and a via body having a slot adjacent either the via top surface and/or via bottom surface, and a dielectric component insertable within the via center aperture, and having a slot aligned with the conductive via body slot. The dielectric component having a center aperture with a conductive member in electrical communication with a PCB signal trace without contact to the conductive via. A printed circuit board connector having a center signal pin with a slotted dielectric component attached thereto, or a slotted dielectric component in conjunction with a slotted, conductive via body attached thereto.
An apparatus for conducting an electrical signal between a first conductive strip of a printed circuit board and a printed circuit board connector, said apparatus comprising:
A printed circuit board electrical connection assembly comprising:
