Systems, devices and methods are disclosed herein for reducing crosstalk between pairs of differential signal conductors. One or more ground traces connected to one or more over- or under-lying ground planes by vias are located between pairs of differential signal conductors. The electrical shielding provided by the combination of the one or more ground traces and the one or more ground planes results in reduced cross-talk between different pairs of differential signal conductors, and facilitates high-speed data rates between integrated circuits and printed circuit boards. In a preferred embodiment, such ground traces and ground planes are employed in HiTCE packaging containing multiple pairs of differential signal conductors.

System, device and method for reducing cross-talk in differential signal conductor pairs

A stripline structure. The stripline structure includes a stripline transmission line, a first ground plane, a first dielectric layer overlaying the first ground plane, a conductive trace overlaying the first dielectric layer, a second dielectric layer overlaying the conductive trace, a second ground plane overlaying the second dielectric layer, multiple first conductive vias, and multiple second conductive vias. Each first conductive via and each second conductive via electrically connects the first ground plane to the second ground plane. The multiple first conductive vias are located along a first line parallel to the conductive trace, and the multiple second conductive vias are located along a second line parallel to the conductive trace. The first line and the second line are located on opposite sides of the conductive trace.
