Abstract

A printed circuit board for mounting electronic parts thereon includes a ground portion formed on the printed circuit board and connected to an outer ground. A plurality of conductive ground layers are stacked so as to interpose an insulation layer therebetween. An upper conductive ground layer includes first and second conductive ground portions. The first and second ground portions are connected by a connecting element. Another conductive ground layer under the upper conductive ground layer is grounded via the first and second ground portions of the upper conductive ground layer via a through hole provided in the ground portion.

Claims (19)

1. A printed circuit board for mounting electric elements thereon, comprising:

a ground portion formed on the printed circuit board connected to an outer ground;

first and second conductive ground layers stacked so as to interpose an insulation layer therebetween, the first conductive ground layer including first, second, and third conductive ground portions, the first and second conductive ground portions having island shapes, respectively, and the third conductive ground portion being adjacent to the first and second conductive ground portions;

first and second through holes formed in the second and third conductive ground portions, respectively; and

a connecting element connecting the first conductive ground portion and at least one of the second and third conductive ground portions;

wherein the first conductive ground portion is coupled to the outer ground and the second conductive ground layer is grounded via the first conductive ground portion and at least one of the second and third conductive ground portions of the first conductive ground layer.

2. The printed circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein the printed circuit board further comprises:

a third conductive ground layer arranged under the second conductive layer and interposing an insulation layer therebetween, and

wherein the first through hole formed in the second conductive ground portion electrically couples between the second conductive ground portion and at least one of the second and third conductive ground layers.

3. The printed circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein the first conductive ground layer further includes a fourth conductive ground portion having an island shape and selectively coupled to the first conductive ground portion by a second connecting element.

4. A printed circuit board for mounting electric elements thereon, comprising:

a ground portion formed on the printed circuit board connected to an outer ground;

first and second conductive ground layers stacked so as to interpose an insulation layer therebetween, the first conductive ground layer including first, second, third, and fourth conductive ground portions, the first, second, and third conductive ground portions having island shapes, respectively, and the fourth conductive ground portion being adjacent to the first, second, and third conductive ground portions;

first, second, and third through holes formed in the second, third, and fourth conductive ground portions, respectively; and

a connecting element provided so as to selectively connect the first conductive ground portion to the second, third, and fourth conductive ground portions;

wherein the first conductive ground portion is coupled to the outer ground and the second conductive ground layer is grounded via the first ground portion and at least one of the second, third, and fourth conductive ground portions of the first conductive ground layer.

5. The printed circuit board according to claim 4 , wherein the printed circuit board further comprises:
