High-speed routing composite material

Abstract

An electronic system includes a circuit board formed from a composite material. The composite material includes fibers embedded within a substrate and the fibers are oriented substantially orthogonal to one another. A plurality of traces are formed on the board, and the plurality of traces are oriented relative to at least one of the fibers at an angle between about 17.5° and about 27.5° or between about 20.0° and about 25.0°. A pair of the traces are oriented substantially orthogonal to one another, and a pair of the traces are oriented relative to one another at an angle of about 45.0°. The fibers are fiberglass, and the substrate is an epoxy resin. The fibers have a different dielectric constant than the substrate.
