Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A printed circuit board includes: an insulating member; a first wiring layer disposed in the insulating member, and including first and second pattern layers spaced apart from each other based on a thickness direction of the printed circuit board; and a second wiring layer disposed in the insulating member, and spaced apart from the first pattern layer over the first pattern layer based on the thickness direction. Based on the thickness direction, an insulation distance between the first pattern layer and the second pattern layer is smaller than an insulation distance between the first pattern layer and the second wiring layer, and each of the first and second pattern layers is thinner than the second wiring layer.

What is claimed is: 1. A printed circuit board comprising: an insulating member; a first wiring layer disposed in the insulating member, and including a first pattern layer and a second pattern layer spaced apart from each other based on a thickness direction of the printed circuit board; a second wiring layer disposed in the insulating member, and spaced apart from the first pattern layer over the first pattern layer based on the thickness direction; and a third wiring layer disposed in the insulating member, and spaced apart from the second pattern layer over the second pattern layer based on the thickness direction, wherein, based on the thickness direction, an insulation distance between the first pattern layer and the second pattern layer is smaller than an insulation distance between the first pattern layer and the second wiring layer and an insulation distance between the second pattern layer and the third wiring layer, and each of the first and second pattern layers is thinner than the second wiring layer and the third wiring layer. 2. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , wherein each of the first and second pattern layers includes a signal pattern layer, and each of the second and third wiring layers includes a ground pattern layer. 3. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , wherein a pitch between patterns in each of the first and second pattern layers is larger than a thickness of the patterns in each of the first and second pattern layers. 4. The printed circuit board of claim 3 , wherein P1/2>h1>P1/8, and P2/2>h2>P2/8, where P1 is the pitch between patterns in the first pattern layer, P2 is the pitch between patterns in the second pattern layer, h1 is the thickness of the patterns in the first pattern layer, and h2 is the thickness of the patterns in the second pattern layer. 5. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , wherein a pitch between patterns in each of the first and second pattern layers is larger than the insulation distance between the first and second pattern layers based on the thickness direction. 6. The printed circuit board of claim 5 , wherein P1/2>d1>P1/8, and P2/2>d1>P2/8, where P1 is the pitch between patterns in the first pattern layer, P2 is the pitch between patterns in the second pattern layer, and d1 is the insulation distance between the first and second pattern layers based on the thickness direction. 7. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , wherein, in a plan view, at least a portion of the second pattern layer is disposed in a region between patterns of the first pattern layer not to overlap the first pattern layer. 8. The printed circuit board of claim 7 , wherein, in the plan view, an area of a region of the second pattern layer that does not overlap the first pattern layer is larger than an area of a region of the second pattern layer that overlaps the first pattern layer. 9. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , wherein, in a plan view, at least a portion of the second pattern layer is disposed over the first pattern layer to overlap the first pattern layer. 10. The printed circuit board of claim 9 , wherein, in the plan view, an area of a region of the second pattern layer that overlaps the first pattern layer is larger than an area of a region of the second pattern layer that does not overlap the first pattern layer. 11. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , wherein, in a cross-sectional view, a thickness of a pattern is smaller than a line width of the pattern in each of the first and second pattern layers. 12. A printed circuit board comprising: an insulating member; an upper wiring layer and a lower wiring layer disposed in the insulating member; and a first pattern layer and a second pattern layer spaced apart from each other based on a thickness direction of the printed circuit board, the first pattern layer disposed between the upper wiring layer and the second pattern layer, and the second pattern layer disposed between the lower wiring layer and the first pattern layer, wherein, based on the thickness direction, an insulation distance between the first pattern layer and the second pattern layer is smaller than an insulation distance between the first pattern layer and the upper wiring layer and an insulation distance between the second pattern layer and the lower wiring layer, and in a plan view, patterns of the first pattern layer and patterns of the second pattern layer are alternately disposed. 13. The printed circuit board of claim 12 , wherein, in the plan view, an area of a region of the second pattern layer that does not overlap the first pattern layer is larger than an area of a region of the second pattern layer that overlaps the first pattern layer. 14. The printed circuit board of claim 12 , wherein a pitch between the patterns in each of the first and second pattern layers is larger than the insulation distance between the first and second pattern layers based on the thickness direction. 15. The printed circuit board of claim 12 , wherein each of the first and second pattern layers includes a signal pattern layer, and each of the upper and lower wiring layers includes a ground pattern layer.
