Abstract

See full text

A shielded signal pass-through or via structure integral with an electronic circuit board is described. The structure includes a rigid inner generally cylindrical conductor; at least a semi-rigid intermediate annular dielectric surrounding the conductor; and a rigid outer annular conductor surrounding the dielectric material. Also described is an interconnect device that presents a contact array in a boss region of a unitary embossed printed circuit board (PCB) optionally equipped with one or more such shielded vias.
