Solution Approach 1:

The circuit layer is segmented into multiple portions (first circuit portion, second circuit portion, third circuit portion) with different configurations. The first circuit portion has a first pitch, the second circuit portion has a second pitch different from the first, and the third circuit portion has a third pitch different from both. This segmentation allows each portion to be optimized for specific signal transmission requirements, reducing signal reflection and impedance mismatch while maintaining compact package size.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different regions of the circuit layer are assigned different local qualities through varying pitch configurations. The first circuit portion, second circuit portion, and third circuit portion each have distinct pitch values tailored to their specific functional requirements. This local quality approach enables optimal signal transmission in different areas of the package without compromising overall compactness.

Solution Approach 1:

The circuit layer is divided into multiple segmented portions with different pitch configurations. The first circuit portion, second circuit portion, and third circuit portion are spatially separated and each handles specific signal transmission tasks. This segmentation reduces signal reflection and impedance mismatch by providing dedicated transmission paths with optimized characteristics for different signal types or destinations.
