The two first via groups corresponding to the same first connector 2 are located between the two first pad areas corresponding to the first connector 2, and the first trace group connects the corresponding first pad area and the first via group. That is, the first connector 2 fans out to the inside of the first main body part. The bottom surface b of the printed circuit board 1 is provided with a second pad area corresponding to each second pin group, a second trace group and a second via group, and the second pin group is connected to the corresponding second pad area.

The second pad area comprises a plurality of second pads 121, the second trace group comprises a plurality of second traces 122, and the second via group comprises a plurality of second vias 123.

[0026] In this scheme, the at least one pair of connectors are arranged on the same side of the printed circuit board 1, which can reduce the space occupied on one side of the printed circuit board 1 compared to arranging two connectors on the same surface of the printed circuit board 1, thereby leaving space for the arrangement of other components on the side, which is beneficial to arranging more board-level devices on the side surface of the printed circuit board 1.

[0027] In addition, in this scheme, the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 can both adopt via fan-out, that is, the vias in the first via group and the vias in the second via group can both be vias. Compared with the blind hole fan-out mode, the processing cost is saved.

[0028] In one implementation, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the printed circuit board with double-sided layout connectors includes a printed circuit board 1 and a pair of connectors. The top surface a of the printed circuit board 1 is provided with two first pad areas corresponding to two first pin groups of a first connector 2, two first trace groups and two first via groups. The first pin groups are connected to the corresponding first pad areas. The first via groups are located between the two first pad areas, and the first trace groups connect the corresponding first pad areas and the first via groups. The bottom surface b of the printed circuit board 1 is provided with two second pad areas corresponding to two second pin groups of a second connector 3, two second trace groups and two second via groups. The second pin groups are connected to the corresponding second pad areas. The two second via groups are both located outside the two second pad areas of the second connector 3, that is, the second via groups are located on the side opposite to the other second pad area. The second trace groups connect the corresponding second pad areas and the second via groups.

[0029] In one possible implementation, as shown in Figure 3 , the printed circuit board 1 is provided with a plurality of vias in a rectangular array between the two first pad areas corresponding to the same first connector 2. The plurality of vias includes two first via groups corresponding to the first connector 2. In this scheme, the first vias 113 in each first via group are regularly distributed, which is beneficial to simplify the design.

[0030] Exemplarily, the arrangement direction of the two first pin groups of the same first connector 2 is the first direction, and the direction perpendicular to the first direction on the top surface a of the printed circuit board 1 is the second direction. One of the two adjacent sides of the above-mentioned rectangular array is parallel to the first direction, and the other of the two adjacent sides of the above-mentioned rectangular array is parallel to the second direction.

[0031] In one implementation, the distance between any two adjacent first vias 113 is equal, so as to simplify the design of the printed circuit board 1. Exemplarily, the distance between any two adjacent first vias 113 is 30-40 mil. For example, the distance between any two adjacent first vias 113 is 30 mil, 35 mil or 40 mil.

[0032] In one possible implementation, the printed circuit board 1 is provided with a plurality of vias on the side away from the other second pad area corresponding to the same second connector 3. The plurality of vias are distributed in a rectangular array. The plurality of vias include a second via group corresponding to the second connector 3.

[0033] Further, in a specific implementation, the distance between any two adjacent second vias 123 is equal, so as to simplify the design of the printed circuit board 1.

When the first connector 2 is connected with a small outline dual in-line memory module 7 and the second connector 3 is connected with a small outline dual in-line memory module 8, the system on chip 4 can address and read data in the two signal channels respectively, so that the bandwidth of the memory is theoretically doubled, and the data access speed is also theoretically doubled. For example, the first signal channel 5 and the second signal channel 6 can share power vias and ground vias.

[0035] In a specific implementation, at least one of the first connector and the second connector can be connected with a DDR (Double Data Rate) series SODIMM, for example, a DDR3 SODIMM, a DDR4 SODIMM or a DDR5 SODIMM.

[0036] The embodiment also provides an electronic device including the printed circuit board with double-sided connectors, wherein at least one pair of connectors are arranged on the same side of the printed circuit board 1. Compared with the two connectors arranged on the same surface of the printed circuit board 1, the space occupied on one side of the printed circuit board 1 can be reduced, so as to provide space for the arrangement of other components on the side, and more board-level devices can be arranged on the side of the printed circuit board 1. Meanwhile, the first connector 2 on the printed circuit board 1 is fanned out to the inner side of the first main body part, and the second connector 3 is fanned out to the outer side of the second main body part, so that the fan-out of the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 is completely isolated, and the interference between the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 can be avoided.

[0037] In addition, the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 can be fanned out by through-hole vias, which is more cost-effective than the blind hole fan-out mode.

[0038] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the present application without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present application fall within the scope of the claims of the present application and their equivalents, the present application also intends to include these modifications and variations.
