Abstract
A device includes an electrical circuit having one or more parallel layers and one or more electronic components of a switching circuit configured to operate at one or more frequencies mounted to several layers of the electrical circuit. Wire traces electrically connecting the one or more electronic components have cutouts with predetermined patterns and dimensions formed along edges where AC current flow is concentrated to increase an effective edge length of the wire traces to reduce oscillation and heat loss of the traces.
