ABSTRACT:
An interface adapter board according to the present invention can be inserted directly between two electronic parts without substantially displacing the electronic parts laterally. An electronic circuit board may include: (a) a first electronic part having a first array of conductors; (b) a second electronic part having a second array of conductors; and (c) an interface adapter board placed between the first and second electronic parts in such a way to minimize the lateral distance between each conductor of the first array and its respective conductor of the second array. The interface adapter board has a third array of conductors and a fourth array of conductors formed through the interface adapter board and positioned in an interstitial relationship with the third array of conductors. Each conductor of the first array is coupled to its respective conductor of the third array. A first set of conductors of the third array is directly coupled to its respective set of conductors of the fourth array. A second set of conductors of the third array is coupled to its respective set of conductors of the fourth array through an intermediate circuit so that the signals carried by the second set of conductors of the third array are different from the signals carried by its respective set of conductors of the fourth array. Each conductor of the fourth array is coupled to its respective conductor of the second array.
