Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus and method for delivering power utilizing a multiplane power via matrix wherein the vias are each interconnected on each of the planes through which they pass such that a current flowing along any particular via, or via group, is free to either continue along its current path, or to move across any of the planes as a function of least resistance. The invention provides a system of vias for transferring power from any particular first plane to any desired second plane.
