High Speed PCB Design

Support Heading

Masters & Young provides specialised high-speed printed circuit board (PCB) design and manufacturing for organisations in defence, aerospace, telecommunications, medical, and industrial fields. Drawing on more than 25 years of engineering experience, our Brisbane-based team delivers high-frequency PCB solutions built for accuracy, reliability, and compliance in applications where fast signal performance is critical.

What is High-Speed PCB Design?

Sub heading sits right here

A high-speed PCB is a printed circuit board designed to manage very fast signals, typically in the hundreds of megahertz and above. At these frequencies, traces behave as transmission lines rather than simple connections, making layout, impedance, and signal timing critical. High-speed PCBs are essential in applications such as telecommunications, radar, aerospace avionics, and advanced medical devices where accuracy and stability cannot be compromised.

Industry-Standard Quality and Testing

Benefits of High-Speed PCB Design

High-speed PCBs provide more than just faster data transfer. They deliver a range of performance and reliability advantages that are critical in advanced systems, including:

  • Signal integrity: Maintain stable, accurate performance at high frequencies.
  • Compliance: Reduce the risk of EMC/EMI failures during testing.
  • Efficiency: Support faster processing with lower power losses.
  • Reliability: Consistent operation in demanding or mission-critical environments.
  • Scalability: Enable complex, high-density designs for next-generation technologies.

Our High-Speed PCB Design Services

Masters & Young offers end-to-end support for high-speed PCB projects, combining advanced design techniques with rigorous testing and manufacturing. Our services include:

  • Impedance-controlled routing to maintain clean signals at hundreds of megahertz and above.
  • Differential pair routing for high-speed interfaces such as USB, HDMI, and high-frequency data lines.
  • Careful layer stack-up design to minimise crosstalk and signal distortion.
  • Power distribution network optimisation to ensure stable, reliable performance under load.
  • EMC-conscious layouts that help designs achieve compliance on the first pass.
  • Prototype build and validation testing to confirm integrity before production.

By applying our Define, Design, Deliver methodology, we create high-speed PCB solutions that achieve performance targets while remaining manufacturable at scale.

FAQs

What applications use high-speed PCBs?

High-speed PCBs are widely used in telecommunications, aerospace, defence, medical imaging, radar, and high-performance computing systems.

Yes, they can be more expensive due to advanced design techniques, tighter tolerances, and specialised manufacturing processes.

When designed correctly, high-speed PCBs provide stable, accurate performance even in demanding, mission-critical environments.

Not always, but multilayer design stack-ups are common to improve signal integrity, reduce interference, and support complex circuits.

Yes. We provide prototyping services to validate signal integrity and performance before moving into production.

Yes. Our high-speed PCB layouts are created with EMC in mind, and we support clients through the compliance process to achieve first-pass success.
