Hi  All

I have  one  quection about return paths  for the  signals on few routed 
layers


The  layer stackup is designed for Controlled impedance of 50 Ohms 
(1.6mm thickness)


Present stackup                         Proposed Stackup

TOP                                            TOP
GND                                            GND
SIGv                                           SIGv
SIGh                                           Thermal1
PWR                                            Thermal2
BOT                                            SIGh
                                                PWR
                                                BOT
( Distance between SIGv  and SIGh  remains same in the proposed layer 
stackup )

As per the thermal analysis inputs Two thermal layers has to be added to 
dessipate the  heat  ( meant only  for Thermal via's)

If  I introduce the two layers  between SIGv  and SIGh  ( Thermal 
layers  not  connected Electrically  to maintain
the same C/S Impedance of the routed signals in SIGv and SIGh ) ,
does  this have any adverse effects on  the signals  return path and 
Impedance  routed in SIGv and  SIGh ?
where these Thermal layers can be connected  to  ? ,   the chasis ?   if 
so then it will be connected electrically
Is this  a better idea  to preserve the  C/S Impedance of few signals   ?

Any   inputs to imrpove this configuration       will be of great help 
to me :-)

Regards

SUDHEER
