Abstract
A technique for offsetting an orientation of signal lines in a printed circuit board involves rotating the printed circuit board prior to or as the signal lines are fabricated in the printed circuit board. Such offsetting results in a printed circuit board in which the signal lines are not orthogonal with an arrangement of woven glass fibers formed in the printed circuit board.
Claims18
A method of fabrication, comprising:
- rotating a printed circuit board having woven glass fibers orthogonally aligned with an edge of the printed circuit board;
- and
- fabricating a signal routing in the printed circuit board.
A computer system, comprising:
- a printed circuit board;
- and
- a plurality of integrated circuits disposed on the printed circuit board, wherein the plurality of integrated circuits are operatively connected by a routing of signal traces through the printed circuit board,
- wherein the routing of signal traces is not orthogonal with an arrangement of woven glass fibers formed in the printed circuit board.
1 more element
A method of performing computer system operations, comprising:
- passing signals from a first integrated circuit to a second integrated circuit through a signal routing fabricated in a printed circuit board on which the first integrated circuit and the second integrated circuit are disposed,
- wherein an orientation of the signal routing is rotated relative to an orthogonal alignment of the signal routing with the printed circuit board.
