Method and structure for directly connecting coaxial or micro coaxial cables to the interior side of pads of a printed circuit board to improve signal integrity of an electrical circuit

1. A structure for attaching a coaxial or a micro coaxial cable to an interior a side of an exterior pad of a printed circuit board to improve signal integrity for an electrical circuit, comprising:

a one layer or else a two or more layer printed circuit board (PCB) having a formed opening having an entry side therein in which either a coaxial or micro coaxial cable is placed through the formed opening of the PCB so that a center conductor of said cable extends to or near an outer conductor layer of said exterior pad of the PCB where the entry side of said opening is located, said coaxial cable having an outer shielding and said outer shielding is free from any encasement within said opening other than said opening to reduce an effect of cross talk and ground shielding is attached to via plating to bottom of a pad below said PCB; and said center conductor extends vertically upright to attach and is either attached to an interior side of said exterior pad of the PCB on a side where said entry side is located or has a pressure or friction contact to a corresponding metal on the PCB to provide a ground connection or signal connection for relying on its electrical contact.

2. The structure according to claim 1 wherein said center conductor is attached to said interior side of said exterior pad of said PCB by soldering.

3. The structure according to claim 1 wherein said center conductor is attached to said interior side of said exterior pad of said PCB by metallic plating.

4. The structure according to claim 1 wherein said center conductor is attached to said interior side of said exterior pad of said PCB by conductive epoxy.

5. The structure according to claim 1 wherein said center conductor is attached to said interior side of said exterior pad of said PCB by friction fit.

6. The structure according to claim 1 wherein said opening has plating for connecting to ground or power planes.

7. The structure according to claim 1 further comprising said outer shielding of the coaxial cable being connected to one or more internal metal layers of said PCB to provide a connection to a ground or power plane or planes.

8. The structure of claim 1 further comprising said outer shielding of the coaxial cable being isolated from one or more internal metal layers of said PCB to prevent attachment to a ground or power plane or planes of the PCB.

9. The structure according to claim 1 further comprising ground vias placed around the center conductor opening extending a ground reference on the layer below the PCB and up to a plane and layer at which a trace enters a coaxial signal pad.

10. The structure according to claim 1 further comprising a ground trench placed around the center conductor opening extending a ground reference on the layer below of the PCB and up to a plane and layer at which a trace enters a coaxial signal pad.

11. The structure according to claim 1 wherein said center conductor is attached to said interior pad of said PCB by friction fit.

12. A structure for attaching a coaxial or a micro coaxial cable to an interior a side of an interior pad of a printed circuit board to improve signal integrity for an electrical circuit, comprising:

a one layer or else a two or more layer printed circuit board (PCB) having a formed opening having an entry side therein in which either a coaxial or micro coaxial cable is placed through the formed opening of the PCB so that a center conductor of said cable extends to or near said interior pad of the PCB where the entry side of said opening is located, said coaxial cable having an outer shielding and said outer shielding is free from any encasement within said opening other than said opening to reduce an effect of cross talk and ground shielding is attached to via plating to bottom of a pad below said PCB to reduce an effect of cross talk; and said center conductor is either extends vertically upright and attaches to a side of said interior pad of the PCB on a side where said entry side is located or has a pressure or friction contact to a corresponding metal on the PCB to provide a ground connection or signal connection for relying on its electrical contact.
