Abstract
An electrical connection web, operable at high frequency and configured on a dielectric substrate, comprising a plurality of generally parallel signal lines having graduated width and variable spacings, and said widths and spacings cooperatively selected such that the characteristic impedance of said signal lines is approximately the same for each line of said plurality and approximately constant over the length of each said signal line, whereby signal integrity for each said line is enhanced and cross talk between said lines is reduced.
