Abstract

A circuit board includes reference plane layers and a dielectric between the reference plane layers. A resistive element is also provided between the reference plane layers to provide a resistive path between the reference plane layers. Optimally, a decoupling capacitor is provided having a first electrode electrically connected to the resistive element, and a second electrode electrically connected to one of the reference plane layers.
