What are Stitching Vias in Printed Circuit Boards?
Written on . Posted in , , .
Stitching vias, also known as via stitching, are a design practice where a series of vias are strategically placed around the perimeter of a ground plane or a signal trace on a PCB. These vias connect the top and bottom layers of the board, creating a continuous conductive path. The purpose of stitching vias is to enhance the electrical and thermal conductivity of the PCB and to improve signal integrity and reliability, especially in high-frequency and high-speed applications. Let’s learn…
