Abstract
The present invention provides a PWB for attaching electrical components thereto. One aspect of the PWB includes multiple PWB insulating layers having conductive traces therebetween. The PWB has an interconnect opening located in the multiple PWB insulating layers that intersect at least a portion of the conductive traces. The interconnect opening has ledges therein, wherein each of the ledges separates a first group of the conductive traces from a second group of the conductive traces. The present invention also provides a method of making the PWB and also provides a power converter implementing the edge plate interconnects.
