Abstract:
We propose a printed circuit board (PCB) interconnection utilizing elastically deformed ribbon wires. The wire deflection is designed as a bistable snapping mechanism, which enables post-assembly tuning of the geometry. Hence, a reconfigurable inductance is obtained, easing impedance matching and supporting signal integrity. Analytical solutions for partial and mutual inductance of buckled wires are developed, which are successfully validated by magneto-quasistatic field simulations and by experiments on a test structure for frequencies ranging from 100kHz to 100MHz. We demonstrate a tunable loop inductance from 25nH to 50nH at 10MHz.
