Abstract
An improved high speed connector is provided in which conductive pads ( ) are alternately disposed on both sides of a board ( ). The conductive pad ( ) transmits a + differential signal, and the conductive pad ( ) transmits a − differential signal. These conductive pads are disposed on the same surface ( ). The pad ( ) used for grounding is disposed on the opposite surface ( ) so that this pad ( ) is positioned between the conductive pads ( ) and ( ), thus forming one set of pads. In the case of the conductive pads ( ), ( ) and ( ) of another adjacent set, the pad ( ) which transmits a − differential signal is disposed on the same side as the pad ( ) of the previous set which transmits the same − differential signal. The pad ( ) used for grounding is disposed on the opposite side from the pads ( ) and ( ). The pad of a third set which is adjacent to the pad ( ) that transmits a + differential signal is a pad that transmits the same + differential signal. As a result, signal crosstalk is reduced.
