Abstract
An electronic device may be formed of a printed circuit board having integrated circuits mounted thereon. A backing plate may compress an insulating layer against a microstrip line formed on one surface of said circuit board opposite to the surface that includes integrated circuits. By compressing said backing plate against said insulating layer, less crosstalk may result from the formation of a microstrip on the bottom surface of the printed circuit board. The backing plate may also be used to secure a cooling device, such as a heat sink, on the opposite side of the circuit board.
