Patents by Inventor Joseph J. Sniezek

Joseph J. Sniezek has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 6570102
    Abstract: A method and arrangement for creating an impedance controlled printing wiring board, particularly the formation of a structure for high speed printed wiring boards incorporating multiple differential impedance controlled layers. Furthermore, there are provided vias of either through-holes, blind holes and buried holes filled with a conductive paste material to form electrical interconnections with conductive layers of the printed wiring board.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 11, 2001
    Date of Patent: May 27, 2003
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Thomas Richard Miller, Konstantinos I. Papathomas, Brian Eugene Curcio, Joseph J. Sniezek
  • Patent number: 6524352
    Abstract: A parallel capacitor structure capable of forming an internal part of a larger circuit board or the like structure to provide capacitance therefore. Alternatively, the capacitor may be used as an interconnector to interconnect two different electronic components (e.g., chip carriers, circuit boards, and even semiconductor chips) while still providing desired levels of capacitance for one or more of said components. The capacitor includes at least one internal conductive layer, two additional conductor layers added on opposite sides of the internal conductor, and inorganic dielectric material (preferably an oxide layer on the second conductor layer's outer surfaces or a suitable dielectric material such as barium titanate applied to the second conductor layers). Further, the capacitor includes outer conductor layers atop the inorganic dielectric material, thus forming a parallel capacitor between the internal and added conductive layers and the outer conductors.
