Abstract

Signal transmission structures within a printed circuit are formed to have reduced loss by making specific accommodations to reduce the surface roughness of an adjacent power plane, and thereby reducing the effects of magnetically induced currents. The power plane structure will retain sufficient surface roughness to accommodate manufacturing operations, while also contributing to reduced signal transmission losses in the adjacent signal transmission structure. The transmission structures thereby being capable of more efficiently transmitting high speed signals without undesired attenuation and loss.
