Definitions
- the Present Disclosure relates generally to high speed data transmission systems suitable for use in transmitting high speed signals at low losses from chips, or processors and the like to backplanes, mother boards and other circuit boards, and more particularly to a bypass cable assembly having connectors that provide reliable wiping action during connection to circuit boards contacts of an electronic component.
- Electronic devices such as routers, servers, switches and the like need to operate at high data transmission speeds in order to serve the rising need for bandwidth and deliver ⁇ ' of streaming audio and video in many end user devices.
- These devices use signal transmission lines that extend between a primary chip member mounted on a printed circuit board (mother board) of the device, such as an ASIC, FPGA, etc. and connectors mounted to the circuit board.
- These transmission lines are currently formed as conductive traces on or in the mother board and extend between the chip member(s) to external connectors or circuitry of the device.
- Typical circuit boards are usually formed from an inexpensive material known as FR4, which is inexpensive.
- FR4 is known to be lossy in high speed signal transmission lines which transfer data at rates of about 6 Gbps and greater. These losses increase as the speed increases and therefore make FR4 material undesirable for the high speed data transfer applications of about 10 Gbps and greater. This drop off begins at 6 Gbps and increases as the data rate increases.
- FR4 is a circuit board material for signal transmission lines, a designer may have to utilize amplifiers and equalizers, which increase the final cost of the device,
- the overall length of the signal transmission lines in FR4 circuit boards can exceed threshold lengths, about 10 inches, and may include bends and turns that can create signal reflection and noise problems as well as additional losses. Losses can sometimes be corrected by the use of amplifiers, repeaters and equalizers but these elements also increase the cost of manufacturing the final circuit board. This complicates the layout of the circuit board as additional board space is needed to accommodate these amplifiers and repeaters.
- the routing of signal transmission lines in the FR ⁇ 4 material may require multiple turns. These turns and the transitions which occur at termination points along the signal transmission lines may negatively affect the integrity of the signals transmitted thereby. It then becomes difficult to route transmission line traces in a manner to achieve a consistent impedance and a low signal loss therethrough. Custom materials, such as MEGTRON, are available for circuit board construction which reduces such losses, but the prices of these materials severely increases the cost of the circuit board and, consequently, the electronic devices in which they are used.
- Chips are the heart of these routers, switches and other devices. These chips typically include a processor such as an ASIC (application specific integrated circuit) chip and this ASIC chip has a die that is connected to a substrate (its package) by way of conductive solder bumps.
- the package may include micro-vias or plated through holes which extend through the substrate to solder balls. These solder balls comprise a ball grid array by which the package is attached to the motherboard.
- the motherboard includes numerous traces formed in it that define transmission lines which include differential signal pairs for the transmission of high speed data signals, ground paths associated with the differential signal pairs, and a variety of low speed transmission lines for power, clock signals and other functions.
- traces can include traces routed from the ASIC to the I/O connectors of the device into which external connectors are connected, as well as others that are routed from the ASIC to backplane connectors that permit the device to be connected to an overall system such as a network server or the like or still others that are routed from the ASIC to components and circuitry on the motherboard or another circuit board of the device in which the A SIC is used.
- FR4 circuit board materials can handle data transmission speeds of lOGbits/sec, but this handling comes with disadvantages. In order to traverse long trace lengths, the power required to transmit these signals also increases. Therefore, designers find it difficult to provide "green" designs for such devices, as low power chips cannot effectively drive signals for such and longer lengths. The higher power needed to drive the signals consumes more electricity and it also generates more heat that must be dissipated. Accordingly, these disadvantages further complicate the use of FR4 as a motherboard material used in electronic devices. Using more expensive, and exotic motherboard materials, such as MEGTRON, to handle the high speed signals at more acceptable losses increases the overall cost of electronic devices. Notwithstanding the low losses experienced with these expensive materials, they still require increased power to transmit their signals and incurred, and the turns and crossovers required in the design of lengthy board traces create areas of signal reflection and potential increased noise.
- improved high speed bypass assemblies which utilize cables, rather than circuit boards, to define signal transmission lines which are useful for high speed data applications at 10 Gbps and above and with low loss characteristics.
- bypass cable assembly is used to route high speed data transmission lines between a chip or chip package and backplanes or circuit boards.
- the bypass cable assemblies include cables which contain signal transmission lines that avoid the disadvantages of circuit board construction, no matter the material of construction, and which provide independent signal paths with a consistent geometry and structure that resists signal loss and maintains impedances at acceptable levels.
- integrated circuits having the form of a chip such as an ASIC or FPGA, is provided as part of an overall chip package.
- the chip is mounted to a package substrate by way of conventional solder bumps or the like and may be enclosed within and integrated to the substrate by way of an encapsulating material that overlies the chip and a portion of the substrate.
- the package substrate has leads extending from the solder bumps to termination areas on the substrate. Cables are used to connect the chip to external interfaces of the device, such as I/O connectors, backplane connectors and circuit board circuitry. These cables are provided with board connectors at their near ends which are connected to the chip package substrate.
- the chip package may include a plurality of contacts which are typically disposed on the underside of the package for providing connections from logic, clock, power and low- speed components as well as high speed signal circuits to traces on the motherboard of a device. These contacts may be located on either the top or bottom surfaces of the chip package substrate where they can be easily connected to cables in a manner that maintains the geometry of the cable signal transmission lines.
- the cables provide signal transmission lines that bypass the traces on the motherboard.
- Cables utilized for such assemblies are designed for differential signal transmission and preferably are twin-ax style cables that utilize pairs of signal conductor wires encased within dielectric coverings to form a signal wire pair.
- the wire pairs may include associated drain wires and all three wires may further be enclosed within an outer shield in the form of a conductive wrap, braided shield or the like.
- the two signal conductors may be encased in a single dielectric covering.
- the spacing and orientation of the wires that make up each such wire pair can be easily controlled in a manner so that the cable provides a transmission line separate and apart from the circuit board, and which may extend between a chip, chip set, component and a connector location on the circuit board or between two locations on the circuit board.
- the ordered geometry of the cables as signal transmission lines components is very easy to maintain and with acceptable losses and noise as compared to the difficulties encountered with circuit board signal transmission lines, no matter what the material of construction.
- the near (proximal) ends of the wire pairs are terminated to the chip package and the far (distal) ends of the cables are connected to external connector interfaces in the form of connector ports.
- the near end connection is preferably accomplished utilizing wire-to-board connectors configured to engage circuit boards and their contacts.
- free ends of the signal wire pairs are terminated directly to termination tails of the connector terminals in a spacing that emulates the ordered geometry of the cable so that crosstalk and other negative factors are kept to a minimum at the connector location.
- Each connector includes a support that holds the two signal terminals in a desired spacing and further includes associated a ground shield that preferably at least partially encompasses the signal terminals of the connector.
- the ground shield has ground terminal formed with it.
- the ground associated with each wire pair may be terminated to the connector ground shield to form a ground path that provides shielding as well as reduction of cross talk by defining a ground plane to which the signal terminals can broadside couple in common mode, while the signal terminals of the connectors edge couple together in differential mode.
- the termination of the wires of the bypass cable assembly is done in a manner such that to the extent possible, a specific desired geometry of the signal and ground conductors in the cable is maintained through the termination of the cable to the board connector,
- the ground shield may include sidewalls that extend near the mating end of the connector to provide a multiple faceted ground plane.
- the drain wire, or ground, of each signal wire pair is terminated to the connector ground shield and in this manner, each pair of signal terminals is at least partially encompassed by a ground shield that has two ground terminals integrated therewith for mating with the circuit board.
- a chip package is provided that includes an integrated circuit mounted to a substrate.
- the chip package substrate has termination areas to which first (or near) ends of twin-ax bypass cables are terminated.
- the lengths of the cables may vary, but are at least long enough for some of the bypass cables to be easily and reliably terminated to a first and second external connector interfaces which may include either a single or multiple TO style and backplane style connectors or the like.
- the connectors are preferably mounted to faces of the device to permits external connectors, such as plug connectors to be mated therewith.
- the bypass cable assembly provides a means for the device to be utilized as a complete interior component of a larger device, such as a server or the like in a data center.
- the bypass cables have board connectors that are configured to connect to contact pads on the chip package substrate,
- the overall chip package-bypass cable assembly can have a "plug and play" capability inasmuch as the entire assembly can be inserted as a single unit supporting multiple individual signal transmission lines.
- the chip package may be supported within the housing of the device either solely or by way of standoffs or other similar attachments to a low cost, low speed motherboard. Removing the signal transmission lines off of the motherboard frees up space on the motherboard which can accommodate additional functional components to provide added value and function to the device, while maintaining a cost that is lower than a comparable device that utilizes the motherboard for signal transmission lines.
- incorporating the signal transmission lines into the bypass cables reduces the amount of power needed to transmit high speed signals through the cables, thereby increasing the "green" value of the bypass assembly and reducing the operating cost of devices that use such bypass assemblies,
- the signal pairs of the bypass cables are terminated to wire-to- board connectors in a manner that permits the contact portions of the connector terminals to directly engage contact pads on circuit boards.
- These contact portions preferably include curved contact surfaces with arcuate surfaces that are oriented in opposition to contact pads on circuit boards. The contact surfaces extend transversely, or at angles, to the longitudinal axes of their respective connectors.
- the contact portions preferably have i -shaped configurations when viewed from a side, and free ends of the contact portions extend in opposite directions so that when the connectors are inserted into receptacles, or housings, mounted on circuit boards, the contact portions spread apart from in linear paths on the contact pads to provide a wiping action to facilitate removing surface film, dust and the like and to provide a reliable connection,
- the board connectors may be provided with a compliant member that engages the contact portions of the signal terminals.
- the receptacles used with these style connectors are mounted to the chip package substrate and have openings that accommodate individual connectors.
- the receptacles include pressure members such as corresponding press arms that engage corresponding opposing surfaces of the connectors and apply a pressure to the connectors in line with the chip package substrate contacts.
- the compliant member exerts an additional force to fully develop a desired spring force on the connector terminal contact portions that will result in reliable engagement with the chip package contacts.
- the openings of the receptacle may include a conductive coating on selected surfaces thereof to engage the ground shields of the wire to board connectors. In this manner, the cable twin-ax wires reliably connect to the chip package contacts.
- the wire-to-board connectors of the wire pairs are structured as single connector units, or "chiclets," so that each distinct transmission line of a bypass cable assembly may be individually connected to a desired termination point on either the chip package substrate or the circuit board of a device.
- the receptacles may be provided with openings arranged in preselected patterns, with each opening accommodating a single connector therein.
- the receptacle openings may further be provided with inner ledges, or shoulders, that define stop surfaces of the receptacle and which engage corresponding opposing surfaces on the connector. These two engaging stop surfaces serve to maintain a contact pressure on the connector to maintain it in contact with the circuit board.
- the contact portions of the signal and ground terminals are spread outwardly along a common mating surface of the circuit board and contact pads disposed thereon. This linear movement occurs in a direction transverse to the longitudinal insertion direction of the connector. In this manner, the bypass cables reliably connect circuits on the chip package to external connector interfaces and/or termination points of the motherboard.

- the description illustrates a number of features. While certain features have been combined together to illustrate potential system designs, those features may also be used in other combinations not expressly disclosed. Thus, the depicted combinations are not intended to be limiting, unless otherwise noted,
- FIG. I is a perspective view of an electronic device 50 such as a switch, router, server or the like.
- the device 50 is governed by one or more processors, or integrated circuits, in the form of chips 52 that may be part of an overall chip package 54.
- the device 50 has a pair of side walls 55 and front and back walls, 56, 57.
- Connector ports 60 are provided in the front wail 56 so that opposing mating connectors in the form of cable connectors may be inserted to connect circuits of the device 50 to other devices.
- Backplane connector ports 61 may be provided in the back wall 57 to accommodate backplane connectors 93 for connecting the device 50 to a larger device, such as a server or the like, including backplanes utilized in such devices.
- the device 50 includes a power supply 58 and cooling assembly 59 as well as a motherboard 62 with various electronic components thereupon such as capacitors, switches, smaller chips, etc.
- FIG. 4A is a cross-sectional view of a prior art conventional chip package and motherboard assembly that is used in conventional devices.
- the chip 52 may be an ASIC or any another type of processor or integrated circuit, such as a FPGA and may be one or more separate integrated circuits positioned together. Accordingly, the term chip will be used herein as a generic term for any suitable integrated circuit.
- the chip 52 has contacts on its underside in the form of solder bumps 45 that connect it to associated contact pads 46 of a supporting substrate 47 of a chip package.
- the substrate 47 typically includes plated through-holes, micro vias or traces 48 that extend through the body of the substrate 47 to its underside.
- These elements 48 connect with contacts 49 disposed on the underside 47a of the substrate 47 and these contacts 49 typically may take the form of a BGA, PGA or LGA and the like.
- the chip 52, solder bumps 45, substrate 47 and contacts 49 all cooperatively define a chip package 52-1.
- the chip package 52-1 can be mated by way of a socket (not shown) to a motherboard 52-2 made of a suitable material, such as FR4, and used in a device.
- the motherboard 52-2 typically has a plurality of lengthy conductive traces 52-3 that extend from the chip package contacts 49 through the motherboard 52-2 to other connectors, components or the like of the device.
- a pair of conductive traces 52a, 52b are required to define differential signal transmission line and a third conductive trace 52c provides an associated ground that follows the path of the signal transmission line.
- Each such signal transmission line is routed through or on the motherboard 52-2 and such routing has certain disadvantages.
- FR4 circuit board material becomes increasing lossy and at frequencies above 10 Ghz this starts to become problematic. Additionally, turns, bends and crossovers of these signal transmission line traces 52a-c are usually required to route the transmission line from the chip package contacts 49 to connectors or other components mounted on the motherboard 52-2. These directional changes in the traces 52a-c can create signal reflection and noise problems as well as additional losses. Losses can sometimes be corrected by the use of amplifiers, repeaters and equalizers but these elements also increase the cost of manufacturing the final circuit board 52-2. This complicates the layout of the circuit board 52-2 because additional board space will be needed to accommodate such amplifiers and repeaters and this additional board space may not be available in the intended size of the device.
- Custom materials for circuit boards are available that reduce such losses, but the prices of these materials severely increase the cost of the circuit board and, consequently, the electronic devices in which they are used. Still further, lengthy circuit traces require increased power to drive high speed signals through them and, as such, they hamper efforts by designers to develop "green” (energy-saving) devices.

- Traces 54-1 are formed on or within the substrate 53 and lead to associated contacts 54-2 that may include contact pads or the like, and which are arranged in designated termination areas 54-3 on the chip package substrate 53.
- these termination areas 54-3 are disposed proximate to, or at edges 54-4 of the chip package 54, as shown in FIG. 4B.
- the chip package 54 may further include an encapsulate 54-5 that fixes the chip 52 in place within the package 54 as a unitary assembly and which provides a singular, exterior form to the chip package 54 that can be inserted into a device as a single element.
- heat transfer devices such as heat sinks 70 with upstanding fins 71 may be attached to a surface of the chip as is known in the art in order to dissipate heat generated during operation of the chip 52. These heat transfer devices 70 are mounted to the chips 52 so that the heat-dissipating fins 7 thereof project from the encapsulant 54-5 into the interior air space of the device 50,
- Bypass cables 80 are utilized to connect circuits of the chip package 54 at the cable proximal ends to external connector interfaces and circuits on a circuit board at the cable distal ends.
- the bypass cables 80 are shown terminated at their proximal ends 87 to the package contact pads 54-2.
- the cables proximal ends 87 are generally terminated to plug-style board connectors 87a.
- the cables 80 are preferably of the twin-ax construction with two, interior signal conductors 81 which are depicted as being surrounded by a dielectric covering 82.
- a drain wire 83 is provided for each cable pair of signal conductors 81 and is disposed within an outer conductive covering 84 and an exterior insulative outer jacket 85.
