US Patent 11751323 Quad-trace structures for high-speed signaling

A printed circuit board (PCB) is provided for transmitting a differential signal. The PCB includes first and second conductive signal layers. The first conductive signal layer includes a first positive trace of the differential signal and a first negative trace of the differential signal. The second conductive signal layer includes a second positive trace of the differential signal and a second negative trace of the differential signal. The first positive trace is adjacent to the first negative trace, and the second positive trace is adjacent to the second negative trace and directly below the first negative trace.
