Abstract

A printed circuit board (PCB) includes first to fourth layers. A power supply is arranged on the first layer. An electronic component is arranged on the fourth layer. A first via and a second via extend through the PCB and are electrically connected to the electronic component. The PCB further includes third to seventh vias. A length of a transmission path of the current flows from the power supply to electronic component through the third via and the seventh via is almost the same as a length of a transmission path of the current flows from the power supply to the electronic component through the fourth to sixth vias.

Claims (6)

1. A printed circuit board comprising first to fourth layers, wherein a power supply is arranged on the first layer, an electronic component is arranged on the fourth layer, a first vertical interconnection access (via) and a second via extend through the first to fourth layers, and are electrically connected to the electronic component, the power supply is electrically connected to the first and second vias through a first trace arranged on the first layer, a third via extends through the first to fourth layers, and is insulated from the second and third layers, a fourth via extends through the first layer and the second layer, a fifth via extends through the second to fourth layers, and is insulated from the third layer, a sixth via and a seventh via extend through the third layer and the fourth layer, a second trace arranged on the second layer is electrically connected to the fourth via and the fifth via, a third trace arranged on the fourth layer is electrically connected to the fifth via and the sixth via, a fourth trace arranged on the third layer is electrically connected to the first via, the second via, and the seventh via, a fifth trace arranged on the third layer is electrically connected to the sixth via and the fourth trace, a sixth trace arranged on the fourth layer is electrically connected to the third via and the seventh via.

2. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , wherein the third via is arranged between the first via and the power supply, the second via is arranged at a side of the first via away from the third via, the fourth via is arranged between the third via and the power supply, the fifth via is arranged between the fourth via and the power supply, the sixth via is arranged below the fourth via, the seventh via is arranged between the first via and the third via.

3. A printed circuit board comprising first to fourth layers, wherein a power supply is arranged on the first layer, an electronic component is arranged on the fourth layer, a first row of vias, a first via, and a second via extend through the first to fourth layers, and are electrically connected to the electronic component, a second row of vias extend through the first and second layers, the power supply is electrically connected to the first row of vias, the second row of vias, and the first and second vias through a first row of traces arranged on the first layer, a third row of vias extend through the second to fourth layers, and are insulated from the third layer, a fourth row of vias and a fifth row of vias extend through the third layer and the fourth layer, each of a second row of traces arranged on the second layer electrically connects a corresponding via of the second row of vias and a corresponding via of the third row of vias, each of a third row of traces arranged on the third layer is electrically connected to a corresponding via in the fourth rows of vias, a corresponding via in the fifth row of vias, and the first and second vias, each of a fourth row of traces electrically connects a via of the fourth row of vias and a corresponding trace of the third row of traces, each of a fifth row of traces electrically connects a via of the first row of vias and a corresponding via of the fifth row of vias, each of a sixth row of traces electrically connects a via of the third row of vias and a corresponding via of the fourth row of vias.

4. The printed circuit board of claim 3 , wherein the second row of vias are arranged between the first row of vias and the power supply, the first and second vias are arranged at a side of the first row of vias away from the second row of vias, the third row of vias are arranged between the second row of vias and the power supply, each of the fourth row of vias is arranged below a corresponding via of the second row of vias, the fifth row of vias are arranged between the first row of vias and the first via.

5. The printed circuit board of claim 3 , wherein each of the first to fifth rows of vias comprise at least two vias.

6. The printed circuit board of claim 3 , wherein a distance between a via in each row of the first to fifth rows of vias and the power supply equals to a distance between another via in the corresponding row and the power supply.
