Abstract :
Electro magnetic field effects for broken high frequency (HF) signal returns are analysed for discontinuities in different packaging levels. Board connectors with a huge signal count and high speed signals as well as typical multi chip module structures are analysed using 3D field calculations. Resulting coupling effects were calculated and also verified with time domain measurements. The results are discussed with respect to the impact on signal integrity.
