Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

To suppress occurrence of a difference in transmission time due to a difference in length between signal lines, there is provided a printed wiring board having: an insulating substrate ( 10 ); a first signal line (L 31 A) that constitutes differential signal lines formed on the insulating substrate ( 10 ) and includes a curved portion; a second signal line (L 31 B) provided along the first signal line (L 31 A) and side by side inside the curved portion; and a ground layer ( 30 ) formed for the first signal line (L 31 A) and the second signal line (L 31 B) via an insulating material ( 10 ). The ground layer ( 30 ) includes a first ground layer (G 31 A) corresponding to a first region (D 1 ) and a second ground layer (G 31 B) corresponding to a second region (D 2 ). The first region (D 1 ) is defined based on the first signal line (L 31 A) and has a first predetermined width (W 31 A). The second region (D 2 ) is defined based on the second signal line (L 31 B) and has a second predetermined width (W 31 B). The first ground layer (G 31 A) has a remaining ratio lower than a remaining ratio of the second ground layer (G 31 B).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A printed wiring board comprising: an insulating substrate; a first signal line that constitutes differential signal lines formed on the insulating substrate and includes a curved portion; a second signal line provided along the first signal line and side by side inside the curved portion; and a ground layer formed for the first signal line and the second signal line via an insulating material, the ground layer including a first ground layer corresponding to a first region and a second ground layer corresponding to a second region, the first region being defined based on a position of the first signal line and having a first predetermined width, the second region being defined based on a position of the second signal line and having a second predetermined width, the first ground layer having a remaining ratio lower than a remaining ratio of the second ground layer, the first predetermined width of the first region being three times or more of a circuit width of the first signal line, the second predetermined width of the second region being three times or more of a circuit width of the second signal line. 2. The printed wiring board according to claim 1 , wherein the circuit width of the first signal line is larger than the circuit width of the second signal line. 3. The printed wiring board according to claim 1 , wherein the first predetermined width of the first region is larger than the second predetermined width of the second region. 4. The printed wiring board according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first ground layer and the second ground layer has a mesh structure in which a plurality of partial region are discretely removed so that a remaining region constitutes the mesh structure.
