Abstract

Mirrored serpentine microstrip lines are proposed for a parallel high speed digital signaling to reduce the peak far-end crosstalk (FEXT) voltage. Mirrored serpentine microstrip lines consist of two serpentine microstrip lines, each one equal to a conventional normal serpentine microstrip line. However, one serpentine microstrip line of the mirrored serpentine microstrip lines is flipped in the length direction, and thus, two serpentine microstrip lines face each other. Time domain reflectometry measurements show that the peak FEXT voltage of the mirrored serpentine microstrip lines is reduced by 56.4% of that of conventional microstrip lines and 30.0% of that of conventional normal serpentine microstrip lines.
