Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A high-speed transmission circuit comprising: a first connector pin that serves as part of a signal path for a high-speed signal, the first connector pin coupled to a first signal trace that extends toward a first end of a printed circuit board (PCB); a pad coupled to the first connector pin, the pad comprising a first pad region that is not considered part of the signal path; a connector pin leg coupled to the first connector pin, the connector pin leg being disposed on the pad; a resonant sub-circuit formed at least by the first pad region, the resonant sub-circuit comprising one or more dimensions chosen to more closely match an impedance of the signal path to the impedance of the resonant sub-circuit such as to reduce an insertion loss in the signal path, which comprises the first signal trace, the first pad region extending from the first connector pin towards a second end of the PCB, the second end being opposite to the first end; and a second connector pin coupled to a second signal trace and to a second pad region that extend from the second connector pin toward a second end of the PCB.
