RESETTING DIFFERENT PAIR SKEW OF PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD TRACES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17726189 Titled 'RESETTING DIFFERENT PAIR SKEW OF PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD TRACES'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an information handling system that has a printed circuit board. The circuit board includes a differential pair, which consists of two traces. There is also a ground trace that is positioned between the two traces of the differential pair. Additionally, there is a ground via located along the ground trace. The combination of the ground trace and the ground via creates a common mode signal filter. This filter helps to reset the skew, or timing difference, of the differential pair.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information handling system includes a printed circuit board, which in turn includes a differential pair, a ground trace, and a ground via. The differential pair includes first and second traces. The ground trace is routed between the first and second traces of the differential pair. The ground via is located along the ground trace. The ground trace and the ground via combine to create a common mode signal filter, which in turn resets a skew of the differential pair.
