Abstract
An electronic device including a transverse circuit board to route electrical traces is provided. In some embodiments, the electronic device includes: a housing; a first printed circuit board (PCB) that is fixed relative to the device housing; an integrated circuit that is connected to the first PCB; a second PCB that is situated in a transverse position relative to the first PCB, a plurality of electrical traces; and a securing component that secures the second PCB in the transverse position relative to the first PCB. Each respective electrical trace from the plurality of electrical traces includes: (i) a first portion that extends across the first PCB, between the integrated circuit and the second PCB, (ii) a second portion that extends across the second PCB, between the first PCB and either the first PCB or a third PCB, and (iii) a third portion that extends across either the first PCB or the third PCB, between the second PCB and a location other than the integrated circuit.
