The invention adopts the round anti-bonding pad 2, prevents the differential via hole 3 from being short-circuited with the reference plane through the anti-bonding pad 2, avoids the phenomenon of discontinuous impedance at the differential via hole, and effectively improves the signal integrity of the differential via hole. The anti-bonding pad is used as an important part of the differential via structure, is not only used for controlling the distance between the differential via and the reference plane in the PCB board group and preventing the short circuit between the hole and the reference plane, but also has profound influence on the signal integrity of the differential via, and the phenomenon of discontinuous impedance at the position of the differential via can be avoided by arranging the circular anti-bonding pad, so that the signal integrity characteristic of the differential via is effectively improved.
On the basis of the scheme, at least two layers of PCB boards 1 are arranged between two signal layers, and at least one layer of reference plane layer is arranged between the two signal layers, namely, the reference plane is positioned on the PCB board between the two signal layers.
