In a double-stacked electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structure, a first conductive plane and a second conductive plane are spaced apart in parallel. At least two EBG layers are embedded in parallel between the first conductive plane and the second conductive plane. The at least two EBG layers have different stopband characteristics. A plurality of vias connect the at least two EBG layers respectively to one of the first and second conductive planes. At least the vias connecting one of the EBG layers pass through via holes in cells of another EBG layer.

Double-stacked EBG structure

A Method and an apparatus for distributing a clock signal are disclosed. The apparatus for distributing a clock signal includes a pair of flat plates, a variable inductor and a connection channel. The pair of flat plates includes a clock flat plate having at least one of clock signal extraction points and a reference flat plate arranged in parallel to the clock flat plate. The inductor is connected between the pair of flat plates, and the connection channel is configured to connect electrically the at least one of clock signal extraction points to an external circuit. The inductor may be adjusted to have an inductance for generating a resonance signal of a target frequency from the pair of flat plates.
