The image at the top of the article shows a number of traces that look like they're trying to climb a steep hill. I don't know much about PCB design, so my best guess is that those squiggles are trying to match a certain latency. But if 90-degree turns are so meticulously avoided in the industry, why is it okay to do multiple 180-degree turns in quick succession?
- DanBC 7y agoThe reason those traces are shaped like that is to keep them the same length as some other trace. This question has some answers: https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/74789/purpose-of-wave-shaped-pcb-traces https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/74789/purpos... Designers would say that none of those corners are right angled, and that they each have a bit of bevelling.
