69 PCB Trace Losses PCB Interconnect losses due to traces can be seen in S parameter data. Insertion Loss (S12, S21) The PCB dielectric materials and traces have losses that increase with the frequency of the signal. As the SerDes bus speeds increase, the PCB losses become a larger factor in signal degradation Return Loss (S11, S22) Signal losses are also caused by mismatches in impedance.
