Key Points
• When designing PCBs for high-
speed applications (well exceeding
the 10 Gbps barrier), engineers
must take several design factors
into account, including the angle
at which PCB traces are routed,
types of PCB dielectric used, via
terminations, and more.
• From reflections to emissions, even
the slightest mistake in a high-speed
PCB may lead to disastrous results;
even if a PCB is designed optimally,
high-speed signals will face
other challenges, including signal
integrity and routing length.
