Abstract
Transmission lines for electronic devices such as microstrip and stripline transmission lines may be provided that include patterned conductive lines and a conductive paint in the patterned conductive lines. The transmission lines may include one or more planar ground conductors. The ground conductors may include conductive lines arranged in a crosshatch pattern with spaces between the conductive lines. The ground conductors may also include conductive paint in spaces within the crosshatched pattern. The ground conductors may form one or more ground planes for the transmission lines.
Claims1
A transmission line in an electronic device, comprising:
- a dielectric;
- a signal conductor;
- and
- a planar ground conductor separated from the signal conductor by the dielectric, wherein the planar ground conductor comprises conductive lines arranged in a crosshatched pattern with spaces between the conductive lines and comprises a conductive paint in the spaces between the conductive lines.
