Abstract:
Disclosed is a printed circuit board (PCB) including a set of stacked metallization layers separated by a set of stacked electrical-insulating layers, respectively, wherein the set of stacked metallization layers includes top metallization layer, bottom metallization layer, and intermediate metallization layer; a via electrically coupled to the top metallization layer, the intermediate metallization layer, and the bottom metallization layer, wherein the top metallization layer, a portion of the via between the top metallization layer and the intermediate metallization layer, and the intermediate metallization layer are configured to route a data signal between a signal-in and a signal-out; and an electromagnetic absorbing material configured to reduce an intensity of a reflected signal resulting from the data signal propagating downward along a stub of the via and reflecting off the bottom metallization layer. The electromagnetic absorbing material may be attached to a bottom of the PCB and/or coaxially attached to the stub.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 13 , further comprising attaching a dielectric material to the lower metallization layer directly underneath the stub, wherein forming the electromagnetic absorbing material comprising attaching the electromagnetic absorbing material to the dielectric material directly underneath the stub, wherein a dielectric constant of the dielectric material is between a dielectric constant of the stacked electrical insulating layers and a dielectric constant of the electromagnetic absorbing material.
