Re: gEDA-user: A not too serious PCB question



Interesting idea.

Looks like it's a single (maybe double) sided through hole PCB.
Probably only a low frequency board.

I can see this may have some advantages for high current and therefore
maybe switch mode PSU's but it may only have limited use for the
following reasons:

i) All tracks have the same gap between them. This may have adverse
implications for crosstalk.
ii) Track dimensions are very irregular. This makes it almost
impossible to provide a controlled impedance. Therefore limited to
only low frequency / slow edge applications.

Could open a whole new topological discussion on auto routers though :)
